Once again get the Rega back. However this could be the optimum time for an upgrade. Of course you can stay in the Rega family 9 or 25. Consider Thorens. How about a pre owned Linn LP-12. That is a TT hard to beat on the preowned market. It is argueable that a preowned LP-12 could place you in the mid level of most new TT's on the market. Per Stereophile it is a boarderline class A
I miss my Rega turntable. What to do?
I traded in my old (unmodified) Rega Planar 2 a while back and bought a Music Hall MMF-5, which is OK, but ...
I've always missed the Rega, and now it (withExpressimo stud and Heavyweight and Incognito rrewire) is for sale at my local stereo shop. The thought of having it all duded up has got me wondering. Should I bring it all back home? Does this make any sense? Or would this be a downgrade of some sort? The Rega -- at least the Rega of my memory -- rocked more than the Music Hall.
Associated equipment: Modwright modified Monolithic phono pre. McCormack TLC-1 (modded by SMC Audio) and McCormack mono DNA-0.5s (also modded by SMC Audio) and B&W 805 Nautilis signatures.
I've got way, way more CDs than vinyl, but I'be been getting back into LPs. Any advice (including cartridge recommendations if repurchasing the Rega is suggested) would be much appreciated. Thanks very much.
