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 just sold a totally upgraded P5 for a Clearaudio.
The speed never bothered me too much on the Rega till I heard the correct speed on my Clearaudio which has much better tone and pace. The Satisfy arm is better too.
No more Rega's especially new ones with all the QC issues.

I have gone from a Rega P5 to a P7 to a P9. I am happy where I am at now.

We all know Rega turntables are far from perfect. But the P7 and P9 offer alot of musical engagement regardless of cost. The P9 RB1000 tonearm is good enough for $2k+ phono cartridges. You probably need to move up to a Spiral Groove SG-2(15k?)to better a Rega P9 in every aspect.
