How do you know what your weakest link is?

I'm  contemplating what to upgrade and need some advice on what my weakest link is? I'm considering either upgrading my Clearaudio Concept Wood to a Performance DC Wood/Ovation with a Hana ML or upgrading my Musical Surroundings Nova III to a Modwright 9.0. Is my table the weak link or is my phono? What will my best gain come from and what should I expect that gain to manifest as?

OP the truth is few here had heard most of the components in your system….. so belief systems, personal ownership bias, etc kick in. Maybe some science….

My belief system and hearing some of your gear, in myriad combination with other gear would be to isolate the table, especially IF as you say the ML is sacrosanct.

An honest question, how do you know it ( in isolation as a link ) is as good as you say ? Yes, i own one also…on an ancient but formidable TT and certainly an arm w competent bearings, etc…

Room, tell us more about that ? Leapfrog the random wander upgrade crowd by knowing your RT60….and doing something about the issues.

Hope i have helped, enjoy the music, and the journey…

Even my master sensei himself has… a sensei..
