First I would make sure your set-up is correct.... Is the 'table level? Do you have the cart aligned properly? How is the VTA? (you would have to add shims, or some other after market (Teres) fix if it's not).
If all this checks out OK, then start changing things around... I have never been a big fan of the Rega sound, but you should be able to blow away most digital front ends with your rig.
I think one of the first equipment changes I would look for is to get some tubes into the mix. Depending on your budget there are some nice used phono preamps out there for 1-2K. Something like the ARC PH models, Conrad Johnson, etc.
