VPI SCOUTMASTER UPGRADE TO ?

I currently have a VPI Scoutmaster and considering an upgrade. To go to the Super Scoutmaster which includes to the best of my knowledge the following: 1. HRX motor assembly, 2. Outer ring and inner clamp 3. SDS controller
Also I would consider the new JMW-9 signature Arm. The total cost of the above would be about $6000.00, about $3500.00 out of pocket to upgrade. Would I be better off
selling my Scoutmaster, take a loss and purchase something
else? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I'm looking to upgrade my Scoutmaster with the new Signature tonearm but the dealer I was talking to has been unable to deliver as yet. He blamed VPI for not responding to his orders and giving far-out dates as if they cannot deal with the demand. Have any of you actually made this trade-in yet? If so, who's got them in stock?

It seems like the most cost-effective SM upgrade right now, followed by the ring-clamp and the SDS motor.
