Forgive me,but this Rega table is a toy and not worth much improving.The table itself is the most important component,then arm,then cartridge.I suggest selling this set-up and getting used Nottingham Spacedeck or new Interspace.Then take care of the rest.More money but well spent.Never heard that Denon, by the way.
To modify or not to mod..... that is the question.
With as much vinyl as i have been playing (4-6 hours a day) a new cartridge is looking about 6 months away or so. A DV-20x is on the table (P25) and im very satisfying with the sound as is, but the idea of spending $500+ to replace it is not very exciting!. I would like to get the OL or Expresimo mods (not sure which one ... convince me!!) to the arm and from what i read should expect a good increase in sonics. What im wondering is with the increase in the arms ability(with mods) is it enough to offset stepping down to a lower priced cartridge, say a DV- 10x4 (or equivalent). In other words, will the rb-600 with mods and 10x4 sound as good as an rb-600 and 20x without?. I realize that every cartridge has its own sound signature and they are bound to sound different, but any help with the pros and cons would be of help! ..... thanks
Bill....
