SOTA Comet --- Opinions please.

Many of the SOTA related threads here on Audiogon deal with the higher end SOTA tables. I'm interested in learning more about the SOTA Comet, and how it compares with the "usual suspects" in that price range (Rega P5, loaded Technics 1200, Clearaudio Emotion, etc.) Would, for example, the SOTA Comet match well with the new Rega RB-301 arm and Dynavector 10x5 cartridge ? I'd really appreciate hearing about your experiences with the SOTA Comet and your likes and dislikes with the table. Thanks.

I owned one for about six months. It sounded good and was a step up from the Music Hall MMF-5 that it replaced, although I prefer the Rega P-25 that I now own.

For what's it's worth, here's why I got rid of the Comet. It had nothing to do with performance. I found the 'table incredibly ugly; the greasy, sticky rubber feet took the finish off of my furniture; and I needed a dust cover.

I understand that these reasons do not concern most audiophiles, but they did me.
