These are great sounding turntables. They are also, however, very very cheap feeling. The platter is a lightweight plastic. The motor whirrs to life in a noisy, disconcerting fashion. However, when the needle drops, everything sounds great, and I don't know that you can do better for $400 for something new.

Fluance is best bang for buck in this price range and lower. I have an RT82 and its amazing.

Besides making a keyword alert here, and waiting for BF and big sales, checking locally on offerup/craigs/marketplace could be worth looking at. A lot of ppl keep the box so if its in great shape, a great way to save $$$.

For $400 this is a great table, at the usual price I absolutely think you can do better in the previous pro-ject evo or a fluance rt-85. Once you get to the p3 is when Rega becomes more competitive in the market.
