Help wanted spending money and improving my system.


I’ve got the upgrade itch and would like feedback on what piece should be replaced or what should be added.  If this system was yours, which piece would you replace and what would you buy as a replacement or what would you add to improve the sound/experience.  I’m not considering replacing my cabling at this point in time.  Please, 1 item only.  So, what would you add or replace?  I’m very happy with what I’ve put together, but I’ve got the itch, and scratching is not enough!!  Current system:  Carver Crimson amp, Primaluna Dialogue preamp, Schiit Yggdrasil D/A, Schiit Lokius equalizer, Jays CD player Mk III, Oppo 103 (for SACD only) Thorens TD145 with Ortofon 2M Bronze, M&K V75 sub, Klipsch R-15 sub, Roon Nucleus, Mac mini server (for iTunes) and Goldenear Triton References, home made bass traps.

+1 for Townshend Podiums
IME, the improvements in SQ was so dramatic it was shocking.
I know you are happy with your spikes and rubber floor, but the Podiums work well with any flooring. And by removing the vibration of the speakers everything about the sound is literally transformed. Check out the YouTubes.
there are many great tube phono pre in addition to decware. Don’t think that is your only choice. Allnic, Craft, Hagerman, Rogue, Goldnote, Bottlehead, EAR, the list is long……


Yeah, Podiums are transformative. Maybe he will get a set while waiting on the Decware? ;)
Millercarbon you are correct!  Just heard back from decware..  10-12 months… the search is on again!   But I’m going to order the decware regardless of wait…
