As a long time Rega Research dealer and fan, it’s great to see that the company’s future is secure and free from external interference factors. I’m looking forward to many more years of selling and enjoying Rega gear.

Happy Halloween sale! A scary good deal on this one (1) brand new Hana SL low output moving coil phono cartridge! Yours for $400 plus shipping ($600 retail). This little guy has been hiding in the back one of our storage closets for several years, so its time to find it a new home and replace it with "fresh" inventory (i.e. the new/improved SL MK2) and in the bargain some lucky buyer gets a great deal. 🙂 Again, we only have ONE of these available - so once this it sold, this deal is gone!

Its in very good condition (top metal arm brace has some oxidation/discoloration - not uncommon on these tables, and the dustcover has a couple small scuff marks). The cartridge has a roughly estimated 700 hours on it and playing a couple sides noted no obvious sonic problems (tracked well, showed no sibilance or distortion) and was well taken care of. There is at least a roughly estimated 250 hours of use left on the cartridge. It comes with brand new Rega drive belts and comes with a Herbies Audio Labs Way Excellent turntable mat. Complete with factory box/packaging and also a stylus force gauge. Retail new $4,200 with the Apheta 2 cartridge, yours for only $1,950 plus shipping.

One owner VSM MX Piano Black upgraded in 2013 to MXM (Black Magic) spec by Merlin - $5k plus shipping or local pickup. Comes with factory box, Master RCs and Master BAM. Speakers and BAM are in perfect working order. These belong(ed) to a old friend who has moved onto a pretty expensive pair of YG's. I have given the cabinets a polish and they look spectacular. Cosmetics are excellent though there are couple of small chip/touched spots on/around the bottom rear corner. Bobby P talked the owner into replacing the tweeters because one had a small dimple/crease in it and Bobby also did a light woofer cone damping compound treatment when the speakers were upgraded in 2013. Price is firm plus shipping. For a price I can personally deliver and help set-up the speakers within a certain driving distance/radius of Syracuse NY (contact me directly if serious about that).
