Here's the P10 suggestion I mentioned.
Offer $4500, and you have ready to go table. If you don't already own a decent phonostage, find a used $3-5k used piece for half and you will have a SOLID setup for reasonable cash outlay.

Hey all! I've been circling a Rega P10 turntable, which is their latest iteration. It has gotten great reviews by Rega afficionados, but not much notice from the TT community at large, that I can find. It's a deviation from the conventional thinking that mass=stability, and quiet. It is very lightweight, but stiff. I like unconventional, and am willing to take a leap, though. Question is, of course, has anyone had any experience with these TT's and what thoughts do you have? (Michael Fremer at Analog Planet did a 5 part video of the Rega factory with Roy Gandy a couple of years ago and I have to say I was really impressed by his devotion to his art and his conviction about the direction Rega has taken with its TT's.)
"That's not a P10. It's an RP-10 - different arm, etc. I failed to point that out in my post. Nevertheless, If it can be had for $4500 or less, good buy. "P8 will beat this one I believe." sokogear-For the cash outlay with the cart, whatever" improvements" can be ignored by enjoying listening to the package for a sane price. There's a little discussion on the Hoffman forum.
