Everyone's definition of "DRAMATIC" is going to be different.
A "heavily modified" Rega will be left in the dust against a P8/10.
I wouldn't bother with non Rega carts, since they're optimized for its own arm. If you didn't purchase the cart yet-Apheta. 3 screws and set tracking force-you're done.
Rega is definitely a "just enjoy music on LPs" kinda table.
