Try it and see what you think.
There will be a lot of opinions that the Rega might be better and is more modern. But if it sounds better to your ears then use it.
Edit. I'm sure Dsjr will be along in a minute to pontificate about classic tonearms.

Certainly different. The RB300 is more dynamic and punchy, the Grace more airy and lighter. You need to hear for yourself.

You'd probably need a new armboard.
Have a word with Deco Audio. They do Gyro's.

Just post me the Grace i'll look after it honest loike..
i think the rega arm will match the cartridge a little better with its 11gram effective mass
the grace is a slightly lighter effective mass...
