I heard a Rega (P3?) just once years ago at a show and thought the music sounded great. Not $100k Room spectacular, but great.
Intervening years I've had Aristons, several VPIs with various arms, the famous KAB Technics with stock and Origin Live arms and heard Teres and so forth at shows.
I now have a Traveler I think sounds great, and just a little less great than a Classic 2 recently extensively heard with the same cartridge.
There are used Travelers but my point really is that high quality, simple, non-suspended tables with a good cartridge give a ton of enjoyment.
Follow Ups:
I agree, the VPI Traveler is a great sounding turntable. I owned two. The problem with them for me was static electricity. They are made of metal and plastic. Both conductors of static. Living in a dry climate makes it impossible to use this turntable. I tried different grounding schemes to no avail. I would still have it if it wasn't for this problem....
Granted, it may have required so many repeated applications that it would have become a PITA for you. But for the occasional static electricity hassles I have applying it to my spindle, arm, and also spindle of my VPI 16.5 gets rid of the problem. Maybe once a year I apply it on my cables. Think they have a new version now.
