Rega doesn't publish that spec, but the Exact 2 tracks at 1.75g. The Rega arms are 11 - 12g eff mass, so I think it's safe to say that the cart is medium compliance.
Compliance is a measure of springiness. Low compliance is stiffer and tracks heavier. Maybe you could get more detailed information about the requirements for the arm or using a lighter arm wand.

Hi neo and all Audio Circle members.
Thanks for the information, it help's me,
even if it's not the news I was expecting.
I was looking for a low compliance answer.
Well, I will use my Rega Exact medium compliance with the linear arm
anyway and see what will happen.
I will certainly not buy a new cartridge, with it's re-tipping,
that cartridge up to now is costing me an arm and a leg,
to use a familiar expression.
The linear arm is a gift from an Audio Circle member and as a gift,
I will not change anything.
The combo linear arm and Rega Exact will be better
than the Rega RB-301 arm I am quite sure and if it's not,
well, the linear arm will look way cooler on my set-up.
Anyway, all that will only happen this coming summer.
Summer in USDA not in Vietnam, here it's summer all year round.
Thanks again for the info.
