Thinking about switching cartridges.


I have a 2 year old Rega P-10. I'm thinking about switching out the Aphelion 2 for a Hana Red. Is this a waste of money? Your thoughts. Thanks in advance.

I always prefer a tonearm with a removable headshell so that changing cartridges is easy. 

@jasonbourne71 is right. That is a sideways move. Save longer and get something like a Soundsmith Sussurro or Ortofon Windfeld Ti.  

Thanks everyone. That's what I wanted to know. Whether it was going to be an improvement or a sideways move. 

I have seen many glorious reviews of the Hanna, but none about the Rega carts, all on their own. I have only see glorious reviews of the P10 with the cart. 

Dear @marshinski15  :  I never listen in any system your Rega cartridge but I listened in at least 4 systems ( inlcuding mine ) the Umami Red and is a excellent performers and no the Ortofon Windfeld is not better but different.

My advise is that you should try and decide about because your system is different for the other audiophiles. Btw, RP-10 and its tonearm are really first rate components.

 

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTION,
