Rega RP6 VTA issue

I find the Regas to be well designed tables for the person who likes to not fuss with the most intricate setting to get the last percent of music to be refined. I prefer a set it and forget it solution. I would not want to spend time setting VTA and azimuth for each different wt LP I put on.

Part of the issue was exacerbated when my local Rega dealer said I could keep my current Sumiko cart and he'd adjust the table so the lid wouldn't bump the cart when closed. Really? Somehow my desire for an RP6 is dimming quickly as in that price range it seems that EVERY table allows for VTA, azimuth tweeking, etc., and since my mint but elderly Linn Basik/Akito still lives (I had planned to replace it while it's still working well), and sounds fabulous, I can wait. Pro-ject RPM 10.1 used someplace...hmmm

Wolf, those higher Projects have my wallet itching as well.
I keep an ancient Planar 3 running for the sole reason it has
a greybeard carbon fiber ADC LFT-1 low mass tone arm which was set up to be exactly right for the wonderful ADC XLM-II cart.

If my last OEM XLM stylus dies before I do, I'll have to make a change.

I like my RP6 setup. Non-rega cartridge with no spacers. See my system page. And yes, I do not mess with my setup except maybe the tracking force and antiskate.

FWIW, I have an RP6 with the sumiko blackbird cart. Dealer did the install and haven't had a problem for over a year.
