VPI Aries 3 Questions - Looking to make a switch

Thank you for the responses. I do love the sound of my current Aries 3 through my system; ARC PH-8, ARC REF-6, ARC REF75se, AQ Niagara 5000, AQ William Tell Zero and Bass. AQ Waters. Aurender A10, Vandersteen Quattro CT. This system has nice synergy.

The Tonearm that I presently have is the JMW 10.5i with Nordost wires. Would a gimbaled arm or fat boy be an upgrade?

Any recommendations on cart and tonearm upgrades? Perhaps I will check this out because a move to a Classic 3 or AMG Giro would not be a step forward?

Any opinion on how much benefit I am getting from the single flywheel motor? Would there be a noticeable loss if I went back to a standard motor?

Thank you for all the thoughtful responses. I have also talked to a few dealers in the Midwest, and they all have great things to say about VPI and the Aries table. "solid and bold performance". I was almost convinced to keep the VPI but the more I dig, the more I think that the AMG Giro will offer near VPI dynamics with better micro dynamics and detail. I think that my system is resolving enough to handle the AMG benefits. My problem now is that if I want to sell my rig complete, shipping will be a PITA and expensive. I do not have the original boxes unfortunately. 

Ahh... first world problems!

I am officially undecided. 

Anyone want to give me $5k for the complete rig with cart and pick it up over the weekend? HaHa!

I pulled the trigger the AMG Giro. The more I studied and the more people I talked to eventually convinced me. I will eventually give my thoughts on the move after I had a chance to let things settle in.

I will truly miss the Aries 3. 

I have heard AMG tables many times and I am blown away by their performance. I couldn't not get one! 😉
