VPI upgrade?


I'd like to upgrade my turntable, a VPI Scout 1.1. w/ Ortofon 2M Black cart....

Question, staying with VPI, is  Prime a significant upgrade? Also, using a Channel Island phono pre...I'll be buying used, budget $3500.

I might regret this, any other sugestions?

I'm going to grab that VPI Prime walnut B stock and enjoy a $1,000 discount. Also, plan to replace the 2M Black w a MC cart. Also will consider a phono pre upgrade...

Thanks for your input!

Just found this at Upscale:

VPI Super Prime Scout 21 Turntable w/ 10.5" Tonearm & VTA On the Fly

$4800 list, sale, $3499...Thoughts?

 

 

All of the information and expertise is greatly appreciated. Please remember that my budget is $3,500. Happy to buy used!

Perhaps, I'm dreaming to find a significant improvement.

I looked at the Pure Fidelity website and realized it's an $8K suggestion...They look like works of art.
