Rega P8 with Alpheta 2?

Rega dealer here***

The P8 is a fantastic table.  I've been extremely impressed with it since it was released.

The Apheta 2 is also a nice cart.  At it's retail price point of $1900, it has quite a few contenders that many think are just as good.  However, when purchased in combo with the P8, the retail pricing drops to $1200....at that price point, I don't think there are many (any) carts that will match it.

whats the difference between the rp8 and the p8? they look the same.

The newer table is a complete redesign or the RP8 and is based more along the lines of Roy Gandys $40k uber table design.

The concepts are the same the implementation is better with the P8 so it takes all the same qualities of the P8 and extend it.

So you have a few options buy a brand new table for $4k or dealers such as ourselves are selling the older table at a steep discount.

So, does no one have this turntable/ cartridge combination? I’m really wanting to pull the trigger on this, but I would like to hear some feedback from someone who owns one. Can’t find out what the output of the cart is to see if my phono stage will work with it.
