Rega P3-24 & P5 owners..........

I've been extremely happy with my Rega P3-24/Exact 2 set-up for the past nine months, and have just taken it way up in quality by adding the TT-PSU. Thanks to all the thoughts expressed in these forums, and those of many internet and written reviews, I finally made the purchase. As great as my analog front end sounded before, it now seems improved in all areas. Most significantly, I'm sensing a wider and deeper soundstage, a more focused and extended bottom end, a clearer treble and mid-range, and a smoother overall presentation. So, my advice to all my fellow Rega P3-24 and P5 owners......just do it, and put the TT-PSU into your system. It really does make a wonderful difference. Happy listening.

Good to hear the TT PSU has made a significant difference with your P3-24 and thanks for sharing. One will be coming my way soon, right after I add more records into my collection.

Enjoy~

After a lot of listening this past weekend.....WOW !! The TT-PSU is making every LP I play sound better. Of course, some of this perceived improvement may be psychological (isn't this true with a lot of our "audiophile stuff" ?), but I'm definitely impressed. Last night, I enjoyed Duke Ellington, Joni Mitchell, Steely Dan, and Dave Brubeck, and I can't remember these albums ever sounding so good.

Hey Adam - glad you finally got the TT-PSU. You'll have to let us know if you decide to try Stringreen's suggestion, too, I would be curious to hear what you think. I have never had a vibration issue with my standard rubber feet on top of my Sanus rack - my table is absolutely level. I have always had a suspicion that the cones, blocks, vibropads, etc. are only psychological improvements, and that the real issue is making sure everything is level. I think the rubber feet do a fine job, along with the rest of the design.

Adam - have you used any turntables other than Rega? If so, which ones and what are your thoughts on them?

Hi Musicpod........Prior to my current table, I had an NAD 533/Goldring Elektra for many happy years. This table was basically and NAD badged Rega Planar 2, and it played great music. Since I was really happy with the "Rega house sound," I decided to stick with it, hence the reason for my moving up the line to the Rega P3-24/Exact 2/ TT-PSU. Back in the 1980's, I had a Beogram 3404 table, which was a great complement to my Yamaha reveciver and Mission 717 speakers.
