Will Origin Live Conqueror tonearm fit my Rega RP10's skeletal plinth?

"What I can say, from what I’ve heard so far, is that the Rega RB2000 is a good tonearm, and a bargain at its price, because significant differences in sound quality at this point are not there."

"from what I’ve heard so far, is that the Rega RB2000 is a good tonearm, and a bargain at its price, because significant differences in sound quality at this point are not there."

Confirmed my guess of the outcome.

If that were me, I would put the Rega back to original condition, use the dough from the sale to get a new platform for the arm OR just sell the arm and enjoy the Rega and buy more records.

I'm now trying Iso-Acoustics' OREA Bronze as feet or as platforms under the Rega's standard plinth feet."

Another guess -no real SQ gain. I HOPE your experience proves my wrong.

The RP10 as is, certainly is a good table. The current P10 iteration based on reviews takes it up a notch.

Unless you’re planning a future table upgrade, it seems like a waste to do such modifications and possibly loss resale value -even if you only have to do "minor" alterations? Sure, you may hear "improvements," but will the RP10 base be an optimum platform to exploit its capabilities?

I’d sell the RP10, and put the funds toward a "better" platform for the arm, or since you do like the RP10, get a current P10. Rega philosophy is "perfect" for what its designed for-just play an LP without audiophool techie obsession.

Just some armchair thoughts-IMO.

Has OL been able to offer insight on your project?

I would think they could at least offer measurements/dimension of minimum area required to make it happen?

By looking at pics of the tonearm, it looks like clearance(height of plinth) is needed for the threaded collar used for VTA among other things?

"I've bought much better phonostage, amplifier, cables, cartridge...All while using the RP10 with its stock RB-2000 tonearm. I can't say whether there would be further improvement by using a "better" tonearm, but it would seem to be the logical next step.

Since you have that base covered, I would consider myself good until you're ready to commit to the next level-significant outlay for a completely new setup. 

"Better" phonostage in your case means something $3-5K and capable of exploiting a $3K+ cartridge.

I would consider myself set until I'm ready to open the wallet considerably wider for a completely new setup. Dump the RP10 for a Kuzma, Feikert or whatever.

Hopefully you'll hear noticeable SQ improvements WITHOUT doing any modification/harm to the plinth, which will affect resale value.

So far, doesn't sound like a smooth transition.
