Question for this thread. I have this deck in the IIX900. Want to upgrade sound.Currently mated is an RB250 arm with a Michell technoweight and upgraded silver wiring. Using a Grado Blue equivalent from the past (MCZ). (No hums)I sense that leaving the glass platter with None Felt mat is best. And using no record clamping as well. Would better dollars be spent on going PSU outboard with a Hercules/Mose Box (about $400) or ditching the RB250 for a Michell Technoarm (more $)?? Current sound is quite nice. Soon will mount a Denon DL103 and boost my PH3 phono box resistors to 100ohm. Feedback on best $$ spent much appreciated. Cheers, Alex
Systemdek IIX possible upgrades help needed.
Hi! I have a Systemdek llX table with a Alphonson Opal tonearm pair with a Rega Exact Cartridge. I was planning on buying a new table to upgrade but after much research found I proably wouldnt get much more performance in the table upgrade I could afford which was in the 1200 hundred dollar range. With that said in which direction would I stand to get the most performance in a upgrade. The table has the glass platter & a felt pad with no clamp. Should I upgrade the cartridge & matt? If so what is a good match for the Opal arm? The way I understand it the Opal is a very fine tone arm. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers Deanna
