Reloop RP-1000 MK2 — Belt-Drive Turntable Engineered for Clean Vinyl Playback

The Reloop RP-1000 MK2 is a belt-drive turntable aimed at aspiring DJs and HiFi enthusiasts who want a low-noise vinyl rig. This model uses an elastic rubber belt to decouple the DC motor from the precision-engineered die-cast aluminium platter, absorbing unwanted vibration before it reaches the stylus. A sturdy chassis with optimized damping and shock-absorbing feet keeps the deck planted on the table.

What Sets This Deck Apart in the Entry-Turntable Segment

Two details push this model above basic belt-drive rivals. The statically balanced S-shaped tonearm with hydraulic lift and anti-skating pairs with a universal SME connector, so swapping the included Ortofon OM Black for a higher-output moving magnet is a one-step upgrade. Reworked metallic start/stop buttons give clear haptic feedback, while an extendible aluminium target light lets the operator cue records in a dark booth.

Belt-Drive Motor and Platter — Quiet Rotation for Vinyl Listening

The drive train is the heart of any turntable, and this one keeps motor noise away from the music. A DC motor pulls the platter through an elastic rubber belt, while an electronic brake brings rotation to a halt in under one second.

• Drive Type: Belt drive — rubber belt isolates motor vibration from the platter
• Platter Material: Aluminium die-cast, 332 mm diameter — heavy mass holds stable rotation
• Speeds: 33 1/3 and 45 RPM — manual selection covers full LP playback and 7-inch singles
• Wow and Flutter: < 0.25% WRMS — pitch stays steady during long mixes

Tonearm and Cartridge — Ready-Mounted Ortofon Tracking

A statically balanced S-shaped arm with hydraulic lift lowers the needle smoothly, and the included Ortofon OM Black arrives pre-fitted to the headshell.

• Effective Tonearm Length: 230.5 mm — standard S-shape geometry for low tracking error
• Overhang: 16 mm — factory-aligned for the included headshell
• Cartridge: Ortofon OM Black — handmade in Denmark, ready to play out of the box
• Anti-Skating Range: 0 – 7 g — adjustable to match heavier replacement cartridges

Signal Path and Build — Low-Noise Phono Output and Vibration Isolation

A gold-plated PHONO output feeds a clean signal to any DJ mixer or HiFi phono stage, while shock-absorbing feet and damping features keep external vibration out of the groove.

• Signal-to-Noise Ratio: > 50 dB (DIN-B) — quiet background for HiFi listening
• Output: 1x PHONO out, gold-plated — corrosion-resistant connection to mixer or amp
• Pitch Control: +/-10 % — fine tempo adjustment for beatmatching
• Dimensions: 450 x 352 x 144 mm — fits standard DJ coffin cases and HiFi racks
• Weight: approx. 5.7 kg — heavy enough to stay planted during cueing

Who Should Choose This Turntable

This deck is the right choice for aspiring DJs and HiFi listeners who want a belt-drive turntable that arrives ready to play, with a tonearm and cartridge already aligned. Bedroom DJs building their first vinyl setup will appreciate the pre-mounted Ortofon OM Black and the universal SME connector, which lets them upgrade the cartridge later. HiFi enthusiasts who prefer the warm, low-noise character of belt-drive playback will find the 33 1/3 and 45 RPM speed selection covers full LPs and 7-inch singles.

Reloop Turntable Heritage

Reloop has built its reputation on DJ-focused turntables, mixers, and controllers designed for working performers and home studios. This belt-drive option continues that lineage as a quieter alternative to direct-drive decks. The MK2 revision introduced a deep-black metallic top panel, reworked metallic buttons, and an extendible aluminium target light for dark-room cueing.
