Default Koetsu Rosewood on Rega

Any Rega users have any experience with Koetsu Rosewood, Signature or Platinum esp., on an upper tier Rega table/tonearm? I’m exploring options for new table and cartridge and one consideration is a Rega Planar 10 with either an Aphelion or a Rosewood Signature Platinum. From what I can determine, the Rosewood would be a good VTA fit with height (-14mm) comparable to a Rega cart, can anyone confirm this? I don’t want to have to use shims.

Also I’m a little concerned about cart/arm resonance, the Rega tonearm is quite light at 11 grams and the Rosewood is low compliance, which would push the resonance frequency to about 16hz. Anyone have experience with this?
