I have a Rega 3, modified, with an older Benz 3 low output MC. I use a Nitty Gritty 2.5 cleaner which works great, and there is no need for a Zerostat ( I still have the one I bought in the late 70's) because the wet vac. cleaner removes static. As far as I know Record Clamps are not recommended for Regas. My suggestion: buy import LP's (english, german, Japanese) whenever possible--these almost always are pressed better w/less surface noise to begin with. Imports are just hard to get. MFSL lp's are the best. Also, don't you have noise problems with a Grado mounted on a Rega? that always was the case years ago.
