  Rega's latest turntable takes theories they have been working on for years and brings them to a near terrestrial price point - does it work?

  There were too many of us, we had access to too much money, too much equipment, and little by little we went insane.

  Would the RP8 be a marked improvement over a thorens TD-203?

  What a wonderful beastie! ... I currently use a slightly older RP6 which I'm sticking with for now, but one of these days ...
  
  Apparently the Planar 10 is not far away from being available ... the next step up the Rega ladder!
