Rega planar 3 upgrade
Think of saving up for a Rega Planer 6. YOLO! I had a Linto on loan once and it was okay. Very tight and a little dry. The basic Croft Micro tube phono amp was more lively and transparent. There is so much more you can do.

I have 2 x 750L, 1 x 850S and a 850L.Not on your tables. They are very good tonearms. Not sure what to tell you but the 850/950 are a solid improvement on the 750.

FWIW, the consensus over in the Garrard idler world is that ceramic balls wear stainless steel spindles. I use a titanium ball with a third party bearing.

There are different Jelco models. Which one had you in mind? The 750/850/950 are solid performers.
