System upgrade suggestions


Hello,

Looking to upgrade my modest system that is in a small room(10x12).

I have the following:

Tecnodec w/ RB300
Clearaudio Arum beta S
Levinson ML 1
Michell Dino Phono stage
Quad 405 amp-on long term loan from friend
Linn Tukans
Synergistic Alpha Speaker/ICs
Wadia 23 as transport
Wadia 64.4 DAC
Wadia Glass cable
Raw AC

Suggestions on upgrading my system? The turntable/arm/cart is new, just breaking them in. I like the wadia going straight into the amp and using the digital volume control. Havent tried it into the ML 1.

There aren't many shops that I can demo gear here.

Thanks for your help.

Boy howdy, you have made smart choices. Love the Beta S, likewise Wadia and Linn and Levinson. Whats yo beef? Or are you just looking for next steps. You are going to spend a pant load of money if you want to upgrade a component and feel good about the sonic improvement. So I agree that you might think about your moderate room. Regular shapes set up standing waves that steal souns. Hard surfaces slap and offend and fatigue. Polish your points of contact from sockets (you might do better here, to the plugs, and then the interconnects and their jacks over to the speaker cable posts and connections. If your power is dirty,you can add components to clean it up as well as separate digital source from the rest.
