It's always gotten great reviews and a table I've been particularly intrigued with it for quite a while. It's supposed to be the sweet spot in the Rega line with respect to performance for price.

As a matter of fact, I just orderd a demo unit from a dealer for sale with less than 50 hours on it. Cherry wood surround, $950, shipping included.

I also ordered the TT-PSU. I'm going to install my GrooveTracer Reference subplatter and see just what this puppy is capable of.

Very funny indeed !
Actually, on the ipad app, the forum section is written in small and not very easy to see when you click on "current".

He got what he actually asked for!
