Cartridge Upgrade for Rega P-25 Table

Jperry...I have a Scoutmaster and love it.

I just bought a used Rega Planar 25 and intend to install a Sumiko Blue Point Special Evolution III MC cartridge. I've heard good things about this pairing - Rega and Sumiko. I would be interested to hear any other comments about this combination. By the way, I really like the look of the Rega. It's replacing an entry-level Pro-Ject Debut III turntable with Ortofon OM40 MM stylus. Actually, that turntable sounds great - but I prefer the esthetics of the Rega much better. I also ordered the GrooveTracer Reference Subplatter which should make a big difference in sound quality.

For $1350 plus your Rega P25 you should have enough to buy a VPI Classic - new TT and better arm or Scout II.
Alternately the cheapest upgrade for the P25 would be Rega power supply and groovetracer bearing/platter which would yield significant improvements.

I used a Glider on the 25 that I owned and enjoyed for few years. Benz carts are good choices for the Rega arms.

Thanks for all of the input. I am still looking for a deal on a dynavector cartridge right now.
