upgrade phono stage ?

As a given, I buy from an audio dealer who accepts trade ins, and I must work with what is available.
I am thinking of either upgrading my Bias 2 cartridge to an Elys 2, or upgrading my NAD PP2 to a Rega Phono. It seems that an improvement in phono stage could pull more from the Bias 2 cartridge, whereas the cartride upgrade might not be as beneficial with the same NAD PP2 phonostage ?

My PP2 had a presence peak. Assuming this is normal, I would upgrade that so you can hear what a better cart has to offer.

What's the budget for a phone stage? Personally not a big fan of Rega, but I don't think I have heard the Rega Phono.

I have a P75 II also, I would skip that as well.
