Rega RB250 Tonearm Upgrade Options/Opinions

I’m looking to upgrade from my Rega RB250 (Thorens TP250) to ?? The turntable is a Thorens. I’m considering a Rega RB2000, AudioMods Series 5, Clearaudio, Moth 2000?, Origin Live?. Suggestions? Pivot to spindle needs to be 222mm. I know that there are a lot of Rega modified tonearms out there. Any input would be helpful. I’m also up for something besides Rega or Rega modified.

Basis Vector can replace a Rega, but you need a larger mounting hole. I think the Graham Robin is also a drop in replacement.

Thank you jperry. The Basis Vector 4 looks amazing, but is out of my price range. The Graham Robin looks good. There are so many Rega variations out there!

Look for a used Vector. They come up for sale occasionally. It is exponentially better than the Rega. I made that upgrade and it transformed my system. I had a Vector 3

I have heard good things about the Audiomods tonearm, but have not heard one.
