Where to go next with the turntable

’My advise would be consider the P10 or even the Naia,"

If the OP likes the Rega philosophy of "just play records", P10 is reasonable. New Naia at double the cost, relative to the rest of the system-not so much.

Naia does look interesting, is it now available? MSRP for what you’re getting seems high? Probably will sell though.

"I may look at a Herbies mat again, but the last time I tried a record weight on the Rega, it was not an improvement (on this particular table.)"

Any additional aftermarket doo dads defeats Rega design. Spend that dough on good records. Isolation base good move.

Rega philosophy also rejects cleaning records. Any aftermarket tweak can improve the SQ of any turntable which also includes Rega.

I'm pretty sure that was Linn that said not to clean records

Don't clean records? Madness. Presumably Ivor never witnessed what a good RCM could do and was worried about kitchen sink damage.

My Linn dealer in the 80s said to only let the needle do the cleaning. I did that for years until I eventually started cleaning and, obviously, have not looked back.
