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

Is it the table, arm or cartridge, or perhaps phono stage? Assuming you have no clear weak links. Maybe even motor controller ?

Best cable switch I ever experienced. Expensive but so worth it on a good setup.

It's a personal trial and error thing. Always will be. It doesn't matter what part of your system you are trying to optimize, it will always take multiple attempts to get the sound your ears desire. And it will take years, and years. That's why I always say enjoy the journey.
