Buying the Rega just to find out if you like is a lot of money to find out you prefer the Graham Slee. Have your time with the communicator and enjoy it. I don't think you will regret it

Thanks for the reply. I have the communicator on loan and do like it. But I would need to buy the Rega to try it out.

I have a Rega TT and a Thorens TT and a Rega Elex-R amp. I used to run one table into the rega built in phono stage and the second through a Rega Fono MM mk2.
I tried a GSP unit through the loaner program to compare, and found a significant improvement to the extent that I now have 2 GSP phono stages. The Rega is OK, nothing wrong with it, but GSP for me a major step up. I suggest trying one through the loaner program as ultimately only you can decide what you like with your gear in your listening room. |

I haven't heard that particular unit, but do have a Rega unit I use with a secondary turntable, which I would call "okay". Same deal with another Rega unit I've heard (prior gen, not the latest model). The trouble with the Rega phono stages, IME, is that they have a rather dull sound. Why? I don't know, probably something to do with the design. Most of us ended up here because we wanted something better than just "okay". Take that FWIW.
