What's next after my 300B Rega Turntable


I a very happy new vinyl lover. But I've got the itch for a significant improvement in my turntable. One of my dealers is recommending the Well-Tempered Classic, but does not have one to try in my home. Thoughts, ideas, recomendations for a turntable under 5K. Thanks

Grandpoo- I used to have the 300 and upgraded to the WT Classic. The Classic is quite a bit better- quieter, extended bass, much more clarity. A couple of things to bear in mind if you decide to go used- be sure to get the black damped platter (vs clear or frosted acrylic) and, if possible, get the round motor and not the square motor.

One further note- I use a Benz LO.4 cartridge which seems to work well, but you might ask around before making a decision. TWL likes the Denon 103 and Shelter cartridges and, if they would work well with the WT table/arm, they might be good choices. With a few exceptions, I'd stick with MC cartridges on this table.
