Rega Arm mods-is it really woth t it?

Hello All,
I just picked up a Rega RB 300 for my AR ES-1 turntable. It is a real improvement over the stock AR/Jelco that was originally fitted; with dead silent backgrounds and most important to me, abolutely no grounding hum issues.
I am afraid of rewiring it for that reason-am I justified in being chicken?
Also, what is the ranking of the aftermarket
counterweights for this Arm? So many choices!

You just got the arm and you really like it. Why don't you enjoy it for a while before you think about anything else?

I was not saying the Audiomods is a RB-300. I had a Basis modified Rega and was considering an Audiomods at one time because it would be a drop in replacement. Much easier than getting a new armboard made and drilled.

Ok, I guess I should give it more time as I have only had the thing for two weeks. I will try out a different counterweight and start looking at a cartridge upgrade.
Somebody say Grace?
