@signaforce I’m not familiar with gold note or rega phono stages but 20/20 Mk2 LPS is a safe bet. The RIAA equalization accuracy differences in that last AI hallucination in your last post should be ignored.
Reach out to Ron Sutherland via email. I’ve chatted with him several times. He will explain the difference between the trans impedance Loco and traditional 20/20. List the cartridge specs.
Also…
You’re probably right on the cart upgrade, but if I was going to do that, probably should have gone with the P10, as I think the P8/ML match is very good. Maybe someday, but my vinyl play is only about 10% of my listening.
P8 is a very fine table. The Blue matches the P8 arm compliance wise. You just need to watch your VTA and use spacers if necessary. But this goes for the ML as well.
As to percentage of vinyl vs digital listening…you, my friend, are in for a surprise here when you upgrade even if it’s just the phono stage. That 10% ratio will change big time. Don’t know how large your vinyl collection is but you will be getting some exercise in, going thru it. With either of the 3 phono amps I recommended, paired with your Hana ML, you’ll be blown away.
