Mod my Rega P5 OR...time to move on ??


I`ve been enjoying a nice Rega P5 with Groovetracer upgrades (minus platter) but am thinking about a change now. 
Question: Should I add additional upgrades to this table like a better arm and a better platter or would I be further ahead just getting a different table ? 
I`m pretty set on my phono stage (Herron VTPH-1MC) and cartridge (ZYX AIRY 3) the room has been treated and the table is on a Rega rack. 

Thanks
Steve

Thanks Steve...
I`ve had a few Rega`s now maybe I`ll look for a VPI even though I was thinking a used RP8 would be nice.
I kind of like the skeletal look but I hate that the surround would just be sitting in the box, seems a waste to me.

I would actually prefer an RP8 version of the new P6 and call it a P8 with a 1 piece plinth...
Thanks for the suggestions/help guys !

I put 3 Cardas blocks under my Rega which helped quite a bit.  There is no need to "move on".   Lots of money with only a bit of additional performance.

Did you use the Rega wall mount bracket ? I use one but it`s not on the wall. I have mine attached to the center brace of my rack.

It sounds like you have the upgrade bug, and typically a heavy platter table will give you net gains across the board if well designed. Selling your Rega and finding, for example a used heavy Systemdek would be a reliable pathway, among others of similar design.  Cartridge tonearm compatibility is a factor also. I would stay away from anything "vintage" as it's not necessary and there can be downsides. There are high value new tables available also. The better tables are more highly resolving and better reveal layering and transient fidelity not to mention frequency response  and an overall more even, sophisticated sound. Your ZYX is a very  fine cart also.
