Is there a point of diminished returns with amps and Harbeth 30.1s?

I’m currently using Herron M1As with my 30.1s and I’ve upgraded the rest of my system (Aries/Fatboy/SUT/DL103r and Lamm pre and phono) and each upgrade has been VERY satisfying. So is it going to be worth spending $5000 or so on the used market to upgrade the Herrons? Any thoughts as to whether I’ve reached the apex of amp/speaker performace for the M30.1s?

Your fatboy arm deserves better cartridge,
Me too have denon from Zu Audio & both upgrade stylus and still in my system as back up!
but once you move up the chain to 2k cart you hear more and more from record that you never hear before ,everything just more open and clear. So upgrade your cartridge first .
im also use harbeth M30.1 and stuck too because room size .

My suggestion save more money and get that LAMM ML1.1 .
with same manufacturer you got better synergy and full tube amp Lush .
but is hot though, But worth it .
