Phono preamp Pass Labs XP-17 or XP-27

Hi,

I am currently using the pass labs monoblocks with Pass xp22 line and xp17 phono.

I like the sound alot but was curious how much better the xp27 phono preamp is.

I am only one TT and xp27 is much pricier so unless sonically it's much much better than am happy to stick with what I got.

Thanks

Michael

I used to own the XP-25 phono and listened to the XP-15 quite a bit before I bought the XP-25.
  The XP-25 was quite a bit better than the 15. almost every aspect of the music was better, especially the flow of the music and dynamics, both macro and micro.
 
   I would anticipate the XP27 has similar performance increases over the Xp17.

 What table and cartridge are you usiing?
