Looking to upgrade from a Rega P5. Does it make sense to go from the P5 to the new P6. Is this a latteral move? Or do I have to go up the ladder to the P9 for better performance?
Get away from Rega while you can. By the time you do all the upgrades (I've been there) you could have a new Well Tempered Simplex. I have an Amadeus and I hear the Simplex is almost as good. The Rega is not in the same universe, even with all the upgrades.
The P5 would be a lateral move, as others have said. Also, many people do not consider the P7 enough of an upgrade over the P5 to justify the price increase. Most say you need to step up to the P9 to significantly upgrade.
