REGA VS MOTH OEM TONEARMS


Does anyone have experience with MOTH tonearms? I see that the MOTH 1000 (supposedely a RB1000) is approx 800USD less than a RB1000 - are they identtical except for the 'logo'? How can this (price difference) be?

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

For a long time I used nothing but Rega arms for my table sales, but a couple of years ago I "took a chance" on a Moth arm. I noticed no difference in either build quality or sonic performance. After that, I switched to just OEM arms and have never looked back.

The only downside I can see is the erroneous perception "out there" that they are somehow inferior. Hopefully threads like this will dispel that perception.
