Rega RP3 vs Sota Moonbeam II

I have an LFD NCSE integrated amp with Harbeth speakers. I am looking to get into vinyl. So Rega RP3 or Sota Moonbeam II with Ortofon black cartridge. Any help regarding these choices would be greatly appreciated.

Also if there are other recommendations I welcome your suggestions

Neither. Go with a Well Tempered Labs TT and never look back...

Sota if you are in the US. Rega only if you are in UK.

I had the Sota Comet with RB300 arm and Ortofon 2M Bronze. It was very good. Better sound than entry level. I have not heard the new Rega.

The Sota over the Rega anyday

I had a Sota Moonbeam and it was so-so. Had no slam and really lacked in the lower end. I would go with a REGA RP3 and never look back. When funds permit, get a TTPSU and enjoy! I've had a few REGA's and NEVER had the problems with them that I've had with Music Hall or Pro-Ject...though I will say that the Music Hall PA1.2 phono stage is AWESOME!!!
