What would give the best overall improvement


I'm considering updating one piece of my turntable setup. Either the phono preamp, the interconnect to the phono pre, the platter, arm, or the cart - or maybe another piece I haven't even thought of.

I currently have a VPI scout and use the VPI interconnect to my phono pre. I run a Dynavector DV20x2 Low. My phono pre is a Dynavector P75 MKIII set to the enhanced mode.

If I wanted to spend around $1000+/-, would there be a decent upgrade in the price range worth while? I'd like a little more mid bass heft, and maybe a tad more air to the music presentation.

I think $1000 is a little low for you to really hear much difference. If you can swing a bit more, I'd buy a Lyra Delos. That would be a huge upgrade. I've done that upgrade myself and been really happen with the purchase. The P75 sounds great with the Lyra. One other thing I've done is buy a Denon DL103 and nuded it which will cost you less than $250. It's a fun cartridge and it actually sounded better than my DV20 on most music. It also sounds great with the P75 in special mode.
