Upgrade from TW Acustic Raven AC-3 to what?

I have had the TW turntable (with 10" Da Vinci Grandezza arm and Grandezza cartridge) for two years. I have been happy with this TT and can live with it for a long time although i wish it wasn't as dark sounding, that the soundstage could be more spacious and the bass tighter. The upgrade bug in me is wondering for 50K ore thereabout, is there a TT that is superlative over the TW? One that would end my upgrading itch for the next 10 years?

Stiltskin, I couldn't even recommend you following my advise.
Neither in selecting the main course nor in high end-audio.
Extremely expensive, not on the menu at all but special ordered, very special spices and only for the very educated and seasoned taste.
I stopped eating meat in the very early 80ies....

Hmm, I take it your talking about a personal culinary delight produced from a vegan?

D.
So you prefer belt/string over any other method, so.

With anyone here the sound you get or strive for serves your own sonic interest and adjectives.
I use one belt drive table and one refurbished direct drive table. I prefer the dd, silly cheap compared to the belt drive.

lastly a question for Dover, what do you think of someone dumping a Walker Black Diamond for a refurbished Technics SP10 MKII ?????

Dover if you and Detonarm went out and had dinner together one evening and the both of you ordered a bowel movement for your main course I for one would not listen to your advise on gourmet cooking.
