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 ?

Excuse my ignorance, but isn't weight, scale and dynamics all part of the phono-pre, pre-amp and power amp? Do your other sources give you the sound you are looking for?

On my system, all the sources sound about the same, in a blind test not sure I could 100% tell the different sources apart.

Looked up that suggested cable, it's $3k, it better make a huge difference, it cost more than my entire TT.  IMHO, cables are a tweak, not a drastic shift like chaining components.

To get what you are looking for, would it not be only better spent, getting a new phono-pre, cartridge, or even a EQ to put in the chain?
