Vinylengine.com has all the Rega info. The dealer you purchased the cart from should at least have knowledge of advising on such an inappropriate match.

IMO, a little much for the P3. A P8 and minimum $2k phonostage for that level of cart is what’s needed to extract the performance of a cart that level.

You are aware your phonostage must have at least 65db of gain for the cart?

If I owned the P3, I wouldn’t consider anything over the 20X2.

Apologies for the buzz kill.

If you want to try a MC cart,I would consider the Rega Ania cart. What better, than the cart designed to go with the table.

No need for alignment fuss or VTA concerns. Price also, is more inline with the P3.
