Go with the P10. I own a P9 and its a vast improvement over a P3. What you get with a P10 is a near reference quality tonearm that offers many cartridge upgrades giving you a long term investment. As you might know Rega tables are known for PRAT which complements Pop/Rock which is your stated choice of music.
Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401!
I currently have a Rega P3 that I’m generally happy with, but looking to upgrade and I’m in two minds. Go old school with Garrard 401 or keep with new tech and get a P10. Both are well regarded and there are plenty of individual reviews. However I’ve not been able to find a comparative analysis (not really expecting to) so i thought i would ask here. It would be paired with a Line Magnetic 508ia tub amp and Harbeth HL5 plus speakers.
I listen to a wide range of music, from classic jazz, funk, soul and classic rock but admittedly i spend the majority of my vinyl time listening to thinks like Bowie, the Smiths, New Order, A Certain Ratio, Chameleons or similar.
Any counsel?
