Will you be using the same cartridge and phononstage? I recently upgraded my VPI rig with good results. But, as I often do, I lack the self discipline to make one change at a time. I went from a VPI Super Scout with a 10” JMW unipivot arm and Hana ML to a VPI Prime with 10” 3D gimbal arm with their Shyla (AT) cartridge and the overall effect was very positive. I kept the same cabling and preamp.
So, assuming you have more willpower than me, consider making smaller steps but let’s face it, it’s fun to explore new equipment and I suspect the fun-factor is part of your equation. It certainly is for me. BTW, new phono preamp is in transit (Sutherland Little Loco).
