“I'm really enjoying this table! I was a bit skeptical about how I'd like the weight and wasn't sure I'd like the detached Neo power supply (which requires me to put inside a cabinet due to lack of surface area with my current setup). Though it's a new purchase, I've spend many hours listening and would highly recommend the Rega P6. And a huge shout out to Sean-Paul, Bill and the Upscale Audio team for dialing in the setup for me! I really appreciate it. Basically, just plug and plug once the table arrived :)”

“I like the deck and cartridge combination. It was a solid choice, and was set up well by the team. My only negative was finding the magnetic hum generated between the motor and the Rega unshielded cartridge. It's only noticeable at very loud volumes and when the tone arm reaches the latter tracks of a record, but for a $2500 very highly regarded turntable I was surprised by it. Sean-Paul suggested a "Hagerman Humbucker" which helped reduce the effect to below perceptible levels at any sane listening volume, so that's good - but people should be aware if they plan to use unshielded cartridges (Rega, Grado, etc).”

“Very pleased with my P6. I had tempered my expectations b/c I am running my turntable through a Schiit Mani. I figured I would get some improvement, but I would have to upgrade to a better phono stage/MC cartridge. Surprised by how much bass I have been missing. Thanks Upscale!”

“Bill was great since he worked with me to solve a inherent problem with the P6 with Exact cartridge. The cartridge is “hot” and picks up a lot of hum from the amp and turntable motor. Others would have run but he got me through to Rega and their rep helped me solve a disappointing problem with the sound. I think I’m good now but I would suggest that new analog buyers really dig deep in the potential problems with tt and carts. But again it was Bill who got me through this so you can bet I’ll buy more equipment from him in the near future. I truly recommend Upscale Audio and Bill!”
