    I have done a search and there has been a bit of discussion, but couldnt resist asking, I guess I need a few more opinions. I gotta get one or the other, forgot about the cartridges they come with, Ill be using either a AT150MLX or 2M bronze.

    But is there a better quality table out of the two? The Espirt has the nice acrylic platter and better motor than the old Carbon Debut. Im thinking the RP3 may have a better tonearm? Im not sure. Cant decide, throw me your opinion. Appreciated.

    I'd choose the RP3 for its tonearm, glass platter, good reliable motor, and the availability of upgrade subplatters.

    I am thinking that Project deserves as much love in the press as Rega, Music Hall, and VPI.
