Is the Rega P25 and ZYX Fuji really compatible?

I'm looking to step up my analogue listening experience and am thinking of moving from a Dynavector 10x4 MKII to the ZYX R-100 Fuji FS. Would this be a good investment considering my table - tonearm combination consists of REGA's Planar 25 and RB600 slightly modified with Express Machining's Heavyweight and VTA? I'm also considering bypassing my Musical Fidelity A3cr Phono out and using a descrete Phono Stage i.e. Acoustech's PH-1P or Camelot's Lancelot Pro.

Thanks for your feedback. Would you also follow that same line of reasoning regarding upgrading to a descrete phono stage?

I absolutely disagree with twl that you can always get more sonic benefits form upgrading the turntable. From real music listening experience, it is clear that tt differences are subtle (important, I agree, but subtle) compared to the wide range of sonic signature (including arm/cartridge/table mismatches) differences you get from changing cartidges.

Your TT is the weak link. Sorry, but the Rega's are way overrated...
