Just an update here.I`ve added a Groovetracer Acrylic Platter with some very nice results, I like it much better than the glass/felt setup.I also have an SRM Silent Base on the way.BUT...Now I`m circling a brand new Rega RP10 with the Apheta 2 and...

Thanks Steve...I`ve had a few Rega`s now maybe I`ll look for a VPI even though I was thinking a used RP8 would be nice.I kind of like the skeletal look but I hate that the surround would just be sitting in the box, seems a waste to me.I would actu...
