Where should I Go Next?


I have built what I believe to be a decent system for the amount I can afford. Here's the list:

Luxman L-509Z Integrated Amp

VPI Prime Turntable with a Hana Umami Blue Cartridge.

Focal Aria Evo X No. 2 speakers

Sutherland 20/20 phono preamp

Eversolo DMP-A6 Master Streamer

Furman Elite-15 PFi Linear Filtering Power Supply

A mix of SKW and Viborg power cables

Blue Jeans speaker cables with Canare 4S11 cable

WBC pro Quad Balanced XLR cable for the streamer

WBC Gotham GAC-4/1 with Amphenol RCA connectors for the turntable and phono preamp

I'm a little concerned about diminishing returns on the cabling...

I'm quite happy with the system, however I'm wondering if upgrading my cabling would make a noticeable difference.

Note that sometimes more drivers are not the best solution so don’t avoid two driver speakers. Quality over quantity. After you’re done sorting out the speakers, move to a tube phono amp. Sutherland amps are fine–detailed yet two dimensional and lacking soul–but next level musicality will come from tubes. Look at the new Manley Labs Oasis or used Chinooks, ModWright, Hagerman, as a starting point.

You don't have a decent system, you have a great system!

No, changing cables won't make a major upgrade.  They can make small changes to the sound of your system.  You may think that small change in extremely important or barely noticeable.

If vinyl is your preferred source, then an upgrade from the VPI followed by a dedicated phono preamp would be a suggested path.  I would caution that it could get costly, say $5k and up.

Consider investing in music, meaning vinyl for you. I did not see anything about vinyl cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaner will possibly increasing SQ more than any piece of electronics.

Last but not least, how does the room sound?

hard to comment on your info without your speaking on what if anything you would like to improve about how the setup makes music

based on what you have disclosed so far my main reaction is ’nice gear, but what about the room?’, the room and placement is about as impactful on sound quality as all the gear combined, at least...
