What brand did you leave Rega for?


What brand did you go to when you left Rega? Why did you jump ship?

I want to get a new table and move up to a higher level. I have only had entry level Rega's for the last 20 years, planer1 and RPG1.

I started with Basis and have upgraded in the line - I did start with a rega 300 tonearm and hated it, extremely overrated IMO. I started having problems and moved to a hadcock for not too much more money and the sound and tracking ability is no comparison to the rega.
I went from a P25 full decked out with upgrades to a LP12 that has had some upgrades as well. I like the table but am hesitating to do any more upgrades. I have been looking at other tables but no direction yet. Actually I waiting to see what Rega does on a (rumored) higher end table.
I had a Rega (Basis branded) arm and also tried a Origin Live OL-1 arm. When I upgraded to a Basis Vector 3 tonearm the difference was astoundingly better.
Way back in the day, more than 25 years ago I ALMOST bought a Rega table to replace a Denon tt UNTIL I listened to a SOTA Sapphire. Indeed there was a big difference and I purchased the SOTA.
