Wonder how expensive an RB700 costs used, considering a new one costs 399 GBP (=640$) /OT
There's a New Old Stock (I presume) Moth 700 (Rega RB-700) up for sale, $545.
Go for it, Paul. Then I'll trade you a really cool re-wired Sumiko FT-3 for it. I'll even throw in a custom Technics armboard.

Following along the lines of MWalt's earlier comment...How about US prices on the RB700?

But honestly, I hope to see an SME 309 or IV or V on your table.....
...or even a Technics SP25 in your stable.
Bob,
there's a Moth 700 (Rega RB-700) up for sale, $545 over at Audiogon, new, I believe old(er) stock?
EDIT- Wow- I just looked at the typical cost of a 700- $895. Nice arm, not so nice a price.
Thanks for posting that. I respect the write ups at TNT and hadn't seen that one. I especially appreciated this:
It's not too often I get to read such reports from people who put a 1200 into their familiar systems and can articulate what they hear.
I've owned a Rega and various (arguably) lesser DDs. Someday I want to buy a 1200 just to know what they are like first hand.
Thanks again.
I have a question for Bob in OKC. When you compared TT's, did you use a stock SL 1200 MKII vs. a Rega P5? And did you compare them both with your Music Hall MMF-5. If so, can you give your impressions of the performance of all three?
