Does a turntable make a DRAMATIC difference?


I purchased some analog gear in the hopes of making my analog side (a Sutherland 20 20 phono preamplifier and a Hana ML cartridge) at least the equal of my digital side. Although it has markedly improved the sound of my records it has not equaled the SQ of my digital sources. I know my turntable ( a heavily modified Rega RP3 with two power supplies and many other internal tweaks) is the weakest link. My question is, will a new improved turntable make a MAJOR difference, or just incrementally improve the sound. Or do I have to spend major bucks to achieve what I want.

Since I have both digital and analog set up. Both set up are equally good for my taste.If I have time to sit down and listen without interruption, I prefer vynil. It took many yrs before I jump into vynil.I heard a good analog set up at audiophile house during a visit to a friend house. I was shocked.  I went home I was struggling to listen to my digital set up. It’s like the emotional feeling of the music all over my being is missing on my system. That’s when I knew analog is amazing if it’s set up and match correctly.Changing phono Cables helps as well.with Sutherland 20/20 . The LPS brings improvement on 2020 as well.

RV be patience on your analog set up at the end with all your hard work it will pay off.
