Nova III upgrade


Hey everyone,
Current  analog front end consists of:
Clearaudio Performance DC with Tracer tonearm and hana ML cartridge through musical surroundings Nova III with linear power supply.

This setup came highly recommended by the guys over at Audio Connection, and I like it a lot. The rest of my gear is Rogue Audio, Rp-7 to M180s and am wondering if the Rogue Ares is a step up or sideways. I'd love to take a listen but it's hard for me being that I love in the middle of nowhere. I really like my rogue gear and am thinking it might be a better pairing. Thoughts?
