I like every turntable on the list, especially with a Dynavector 10X5 cartridge. If it were my dilemma, and I didn't already have a Rega, I'd probably choose the RP3. If I wasn't worried about the best value for every dollar, I'd probably put a Rega Exact cartridge on it...no fuss. But being how I am, I'd know I like the 10X5 a little better.

So the Dynavector 10X5 is a MC cartridge? Will the RP3 work with an MC? It seems to always be paired with an MM.
Moving coil vs moving magnet usually doesn't matter to the turntable. Many MC cartridges have low output, which requires a greater amount of gain at the phono preamp; but the 10X5 is a high output MC, which works with a similar amount of gain to the MM cartridges. If you do go with a high output MC cartridge, you can usually run them into the MM inputs on the phono preamp. Better than that is to have separate adjustments for gain and resistance to match a variety of cartridges.
Thanks for the tip on the Dynavector. I could opt for the RP3 sans cart, and have them install the 10x5. Good insight.
