I don't have any experience with the Rega but owned the Concept for a while. It's a really nice table, sounds great, and is easy to operate. The one drawback for me is that it is super sensitive to footfalls and I have springy floors. I could not walk across the floor without the arm bouncing around. I didn't have this issue with any other turntables I've owned (including a Clearaudio Emotion). If you have solid floors or can wall mount it or find some other way isolate it really well, it's a wonderful turntable for the price.
Rega P6/ or Clearaudio Concept, both with same cartridge?
Greetings all!
Anyone have insight? Are the similarities/differences apples and oranges? One significantly better?
I listen to many varieties of music (except rap and heavy metal) and lean towards jazz/folk singer-songwriter/Americana. Upper register sibilance is annoying, but I don't want my sound too laid back/grayed out because I like detailed vocal retrieval.
Dustcover is a requirement; too many damn cats! Rega has a hinged cover, The Concept a cake cover. I'm going to put a Hana MC cartridge on the final choice. So which one to purchase for longterm enjoyment?
I have a system with Audio Research Ref equipment and ProAc DR30 speakers and like the neutral/slightly warm presentation for detail retrieval and coloring.
Thanks in advance!
Happy listening,
Dave
