Is it worth upgrading my current turntable setup?


Hello all here is my current system

Pioneer PLX-1000 turntable w/ Ortofon 2M Black cartridge

Tokyo Sound PE 100SE phono stage

Aric Audio Unlimited tube preamp

Odyssey Audio Khartago SE amplifier

Divine Acoustics Proxima 3 speakers

Do you think the turntable is holding back the rest of the system? Thanks for any advice!

I sold my all my records, turntable, cartridge, and phono preamp. Got around $2000.00.  I stream Tidal from a ROKU Ultra device and then record some important songs from Tidal to reel to reel tape when I want to hear an analog type of sound without any pops and ticks. I record on tape.... albums like "Dark Side Of The Moon"   Many vinyl albums today are made from digital sources anyway.  Album prices have just gotten crazy. No more dirty records to clean or try to figure out what kind of turntable gear to match up.....and still be disappointed in the vinyl sound sometimes. I had about 10 records that sounded perfect out of hundreds.
