Welcome to the Pete Riggle Engineering and Audio Forum




Welcome to the Pete Riggle Engineering and Audio Forum:

Our products are: 1)the VTAF(tm), Patent Pending, VTA on the Fly for Rega arms and many other tone arms, 2)the VTAF Teflon Upgrade, and 3)the Counterweight for the Common Man.

Other products are in the pipeline, including a Large Bore VTAF which will handle those few tonearms with mounting post diameter greater than 23 mm, and hopefully a remote control for the VTAF that we are exploring.

The VTAF allows easy adustment of VTA with the record in play, so the user can hear the sonic changes as they occur. Isolation provided by the VTAF greatly improves sound stage, imaging, inner detail, nuance, air, bass clarity, and musicality.

The VTAF Teflon Upgrade adds to the isolation provided by the VTAF, thereby adding to the sonic benefits listed above.

The Counterweight for the Common Man is structural upgrade for Rega arms, which replaces the stock counterweight and stub, and greatly improves performance of the arm.

I have an abiding belief in the value of an enduring hobby. FDR was a stamp collector. There may be no better hobby in this world than Hi-Fi, especially DIY Hi-Fi. Hi-Fi brings music, lovely music, soothing, enjoyable, foot tapping, and inspiring, into our lives. One never runs out of ideas to ponder and try. You can enjoy this hobby any day of the year, morning, noon, evening, or in the middle of a sleepless night. And perhaps best of all, the Hi-Fi hobby appeals to some really wonderful people, from which one can gradually assemble a cadre of freinds and good aquaintances. Here in Southeastern Washington state, we have an informal collection of participants we call The Bad Boyz and Girlz Benevolent Association. We have great fellowship, a lot of fun with the hobby, and some shared projects.

Our goals for this forum are: 1) support for Audio Asylum (thanks to Rod Morris and his staff), 2) a place where users of Pete Riggle Engineering and Audio products, particularly our flagship product, the VTAF, can share their experiences with the products, ask questions, and get answers, and 3)a place for talk about things audio in general.

If you have an interest in any of our Bad Boyz and Girlz endeavors, please feel free to express that interest in this forum.

That is it for now folks. I'll be attentive to this forum, and do my best to answer questions as they arise. Have a great new year, and enjoy the forum.

Pete Riggle,
