Upgrading my Basis 2500. Vacuum or no Vacuum?

I am not only deciding between a Basis 2800 sig or Debut sig,
but also should I do a Vacuum. What have you heard as
the pros and cons of having the vacuum. My current 2500 is a
Non-signature with no calibrator base, but I do have the Vector 3 arm. I would probably add the calibrator base if
I go for one of these new tables. Im getting there, when I
do I will post my system here. As always, your help is highly
valued and appreciated.

Dear Fjn04: +++++ " in the past I have heard it's not as lively of a sound with
vacuum " +++++

Other than the advantages that others already posted about is that with the vacuum the distortion is a lot lower: what the people think like a more " alive " sound it is only a higher distortion with the vacuum that " false alive " sound disappear and the real sound comes natural/neutral.

Regards and enjoy the music.
