    Cool Upgrading Rega P3-24 with TT PSU

    Hi guys, I have the above TT which is stock and very nice with the RB 301 arm. What I would like to know is, as there are so many upgrades available are any of them really worth fitting?

    Your views would be appreciated,

    Thanks, Phil.

    Try a set of BO!NG feet.
    Oldpinkman reports these as being a good upgrade for Rega decks, but try to get them on a home loan so if you don't like them you can send them back.

    I like what they do on my SL1200 but that is a different deck.

    I'd say; If you like the P3-24, use and abuse it and spend your money on software! If you don't, sell it and get another type of tt.
    Tweaks can most often only be the spice of a dish, it wont change a cod into an filet de beouf..

    That said, the most character of a TT is it's cart if you ask me, and it would be interesting to know what you've got today?
    And, what would you like to change in the presentation today?

    Regards /Mike

    The rigidly mounted 24 v motor job is well worthwhile.

    As to 3rd party mods, most I have heard and seen make the Rega TT worse, so I would suggest you save your money and buy a better cartridge.

    The current cartridge is a Rega Bias, there's nothing wrong with the sound, I was just wondering if there is anything I can do to make it even better 😀

    Mine has the 24 volt motor and TT PSU.

    It is fitted with a Rega Bias cartridge, what would you recommend?

    Thanks,

    According my experience if prioritize internal wire and counterweight. For example tecnoweight. Are the necessary ones.
    Counterweight will improve your cartridge options. I remember the sound improvement with DL103R after tecnoweight.
    I would not touch the rest.
