Rega rp8 vs Project extension 10

Hi every one I am currently looking for a replacement turntable for my old jvc turntable. I have narrowed my choices to the reba rp8 and projet extension 10. I can get the project for around $3300 or the rega rp8 for $500 less then the projet which my dealer has in stock. I have listened to the rega which I like a bit better because of it's speedy dynamics. Though only listen to the project only at a dealer demo before.with a slow recording nothing dynamic. So don't know what else does the project have over the rega. Any thoughts since they both cost the same?

I use a SLP-98P F-1, though I'm currently running my TTs through a Zesto phono stage.

The Cary's phono stage should work great with the Ortofon Black. I also had very good results running a Denon DL-103r through a Bob's Devices SUT into the MM section of the Cary. I felt that the Cary's MM phono section was comparable to that in the MiniMax, perhaps with a bit less richness in the mids.

I think you should be fine with your cartridge choice and either of the TTs.
