Bryan - I took a look at your photos... and I would say it would be in your best interest to make addressing room acoustic problems your top audio priority. If you are looking for a "WOW" improvement, this is it.
Upgrade from Scoutmaster?
Hello. I started with a VPI Scout as my first table back into vinyl and have since upgraded to a Scoutmaster with the periphery ring and weight as well as the signature arm. I'm using a Xono phono stage and a Ortofon Jubilee cart at the moment. All of this is sitting on the top of an Arcici Suspense rack.
I've had this for a couple of years and am thinking about upgrading. I like my table but am wondering if there's just more of everything to be had or if I'm at the point of diminishing returns? If I were to upgrade I'd like to keep it to no more than the 5 or 6K range for table and arm.
My full system is posted.
If anyone has had a scoutmaster and done an upgrade in that range and had a WOW! experience I'd love to hear about it. If you tell me that any improvements are going to be incremental I might just resist the upgrade bug, (but it'll be tough). Thanks in advance.
