Turntable - The Next Step


Hi All. I currently have a Rega P3 turntable with an Elys 2 MM cartridge and my phono amp is a Musical Surroundings Phonomena II. I am looking to upgrade in the near future. What would be the logical next step up to significantly improve my experience?  In an effort to limit expense, will replacing one part of my set up (i.e. cartridge, amp, turntable) do the trick with this kind of budget - phono amp < $800, cartridge < $400, complete turntable , < $2000?  Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

Lots of options and I agree with vinylzone.  I think you may get better bang for the buck by allocating more to the table and catridge.  

Your cartrigde is a good one - I'd even consider putting it all into the table versus peanut butter spreading it.  I think a Rega P8 using your  the Elys cart and phone stage would be a huge upgrade sonically
