Youinreverse Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I think my turntable's about to give up the ghost, so now seems like a great time to upgrade. After reading through some threads here I've been thinking about getting the Pro-ject Debut Carbon, but I just got word from a friend in the audio industry that told me he can get me a nice discount on a Rega P-1 (or similar table). Any thoughts on which would be the better choice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajxd Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Better cart on the Carbon, and better tonearm. Besides that, very similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swemoll Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Better cart on the Carbon, and better tonearm. Besides that, very similar. What he said. The Rega P1 is an older model (maybe why he was going to score you a discount); the RP1 is Rega's current opening table. The only other (major IMO) difference between them really is where they're made. I trust them Brits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
