Thinking to upgrade from Audio Research LS27 to LS28


I have an ARC LS27 that I bought new with over 1000 hours on the meter. My basic system is the LS27 preamp, ARC REF75SE amp, ARC PH8 phono pre, Vandersteen Quatro Wood CT, VPI Aries 3 fully upgraded, Lyra Delos and Aurender A10.
I haven't had the upgrade bug since I put this system together and I am very happy but... Sometimes I would like to try an LS28. I love the Vandys, REF75SE, and Aurender. And, upgrading on these would be a significant financial burden and I have a wife!
Ls27 to LS28 may be affordable.

I am looking for opinions from those who may have experience with these.

Thank you!

what did you decide, pilrem?

I have been all over the place and ended up trading a GSi75 for a REF75SE & LS27.  I know the 75SE is superior to the amp section of the GSi75 and I love the LS27.  I haven't compared another preamp but of course am looking.  I am curious what you tried.
