Rega RP3 vs Sota Moonbeam II

I don't know about table, but RB 300/ Ortofon 2M black is excellent combination .
I have upgraded Thorens TD 316 with Michell RB 300/ 2M black/ Michell Tecno Counterweight and I'm very,very happy.
My previous table was Rega P7.

Rega decks are engaging, groovy and a lot of fun. From the RP3 up should be a good choice. Just get a good cartridge for it and you're done. Their build quality may not match the costlier decks out there but the sound quality is just pure fun. Other turntables may produce more detail or sound more accurate but the "joie de vivre" feel of the Regas is something really special.

i'd go with the VPI.the rega is better than the sota.my rega RP3-24 sounds very good.

"Joie de Vivre" = run fast. Buy a good old jap DD and you can get even more.

Maybe throught the old P3 model Schubert. My new RP3/TT-PSU runs dead on :-)
