REGA Planet vs Jupiter

I currently own the Planet and am thinking about upgrading to the Jupiter. What difference will I hear?

That's what I heard though. You may hear differ! -Vik

The Rega sounded blah in comparison, it was an eye opener for me. You might want to listen to the Meridian as well as the Jupiter, I will stay away from Rega for my high end needs from now on.
