New TT, current Clearaudio...


I have a Clearaudio Champion with a Rega RB300 arm and a Benz Silver HO MC cartridge. I know it's not the flashiest turntable, but it has served me well for the last few years. Since the time I bought it EVERYTHING else has been upgraded.

Here's what I'm thinking... I sell the Champion the way it's setup today and add another $1500-2k. Big question is, what should I buy for about $2200-$3000 used?

Rest of the system:
Audio Physic Avanti III
Pass XA60.5
PS Audio DirectStream DAC
PS Audio NuWave Phono
Cardas Clear from DS to amps and Clear Beyond from amps to speakers. AQ Carbon for I2S from NuWave to DS.

@jperry That's actually a really interesting idea! I could just upgrade the table I have to make it better. Never thought about that as an option.
@millercarbon Although interesting, by the time I do all that I’m already at the cost of a high end turntable. Without the hassle and work 
@jperry I'm leaning towards updating the current RB300 with new wires, counterweight, etc. Although by the time I do all that, I'm pretty close to a used arm...
@jperry Yes, but finding an audiomods tonearms without paying and arm and a leg seems to be darn near impossible.
