Anyone have or listen to a Rega P5 yet?


Is this table as good or better than a P25?

Is it worth the increase in cost over a P3?

Any upgrades that should be done right away on it?

Thanks,

I have the P-5 with Rega Super Elys. This is the best sounding turntable I have owned and I have owned MANY.

For simplicity, ease of use, great sound, and value, they are very hard to beat. I am not going to add any type of upgrade. The RB-700 arm is phenomenal as is.

I can't speak to the 25, I never owned one. However, I had a Sumiko Pro-ject prespective with several different cartridges (some up to $1000) and the P-5 is noticeably better.

The only way I would upgrade would be to buy the P-9 if I hit the lottery!

Happy Listening
