Thinking about switching cartridges.


I have a 2 year old Rega P-10. I'm thinking about switching out the Aphelion 2 for a Hana Red. Is this a waste of money? Your thoughts. Thanks in advance.

A sideways move unless there is something about the sound of the Aphelion you don't like. Does that tonearm have a removable headshell? If so, then buy the Hana cartridge so you can alternate listening between the two cartridges.

I always prefer a tonearm with a removable headshell so that changing cartridges is easy. 

@jasonbourne71 is right. That is a sideways move. Save longer and get something like a Soundsmith Sussurro or Ortofon Windfeld Ti.  

Thanks everyone. That's what I wanted to know. Whether it was going to be an improvement or a sideways move. 

I have seen many glorious reviews of the Hanna, but none about the Rega carts, all on their own. I have only see glorious reviews of the P10 with the cart.
