A tale of two turntables


Hi All, I am upgrading from Vintage TT and I have good opportunities for either a pro-ject carbon debut with upgraded acrylic platter and a new ortofon blue cart OR a Rega P6 with a new Exact cart and the beefier power supply. Amplification is Mc MA5200 and speakers are various including Sonus Faber Cremona, Tannoy Precision 6.2LEs and B&W CDM7SEs. 
The Rega is about twice the price of the PCD. Can you give me some thoughts on your experiences that may be relevant or specific feedback on these models that will help in decision making? Thank you.

Why would he get tired of the pro-ject? I don’t get it...I’ve owned the classic sb for going on 3 years and I’ve yet to tire of it. Running the Hana el. Great sounding/looking table. It looks a lot better than the technics, and has better isolation. If I was to somehow get tired of it, I own 6 turntables, so I’d swap another in. That’s the beauty of not putting all eggs in one basket, variety! In my current stable are Thorens (2), lenco, music hall, and pro-ject (2). Also 10 different cartridges 🤪
