Mod my Rega P5 OR...time to move on ??


I`ve been enjoying a nice Rega P5 with Groovetracer upgrades (minus platter) but am thinking about a change now. 
Question: Should I add additional upgrades to this table like a better arm and a better platter or would I be further ahead just getting a different table ? 
I`m pretty set on my phono stage (Herron VTPH-1MC) and cartridge (ZYX AIRY 3) the room has been treated and the table is on a Rega rack. 

Thanks
Steve

@tablejockey ,

It’s a leap of faith based upon my experience within my situation. I’m confident enough without it being ready and in my system to "profile" it. So, you all are watching it develop before it’s implementation. I’m in the phase that now it’s totally up to me to finish it. If it doesn’t work, I’ll be a laughing stock!

I’m still a proponent of decoupling from any structure. I believe I’m also supported by the Townshend video on youtube.

One of my top three main objectives in devising this wall mount system is having the price to sonics ratio being about 20/80. A tall order these days. I hope I can show with some ingenuity and little money, big things can actually happen.
@tablejockey,

Thank you for making that distinction! Very important.

A main consideration is (one's personal preferences).
It seems to me that your current cartridge & phono stage are of greater use with a better TT.

Maybe the Audiomods/Rega  are very good for a reasonable price...my Funk Firm/Rega based arm is to die for!
