Analogue front end. You want more weight, scale and dynamics.Where do you start upgrading?

@inna Ya, i might hunt down a Balance for giggles … but what would be more likely is a RonT power supply, Bardo heavy… or as @mulveling so astutely points out locating the TT outside the listening room whilst hiring a surfer girl Friday to deal with spinning records… BTW, ive done this and the variables in trade are MUCH better isolation vs a 1 M XLR from phono to 5 M XLR… which w a silver cable is not taco money….

I should clarify, experiment was conducted sans surfer GF as that would have cosst me half of everything 

mulveling, you may be right that given proper isolation cartridge/phono stage unit becomes more important than table itself. Or it will vary wildly.

The biggest change to a turntable is always the cartridge. Always. You will need to ensure that the cartridge is compatible with the tonearm and phono stage, SUT and/or head amp.

The second biggest change to improve your analog setup is... speakers. I know, controversial. But you asked for the biggest change and the first and last transducers always make the biggest impact on the sound of your system.

You seem to have all the answers already.
