Turntable is the most expensive in the chain, do it make sense


First all, I have small room and square but fully treated. My journey with analog been few years and now 90% listen to records only.

Been chasing better sound for my analog end up with the system now sound very pleasing to listen to, no fatigue and smooth, as I want try other speaker kind a scare me if not suit to my room, hence I found better idea to get me other table. 
best yet this bring my sound a one step up. Also change some phono stage for better synergy with same brand bring positive impact too.

so now if I wanna upgrade for better table(maybe) that will cost more and still use same cartridge (Dyna RUA) is it make sense ? 
not really want try expensive cartridge, lesson learned hard way.

thanks 🙏

Dear @honeyooi  : "  Basis even though uni pivot but is very stable arm. "

Well you can see at macroscopic level that's stable but the main and critical issue is what is happening at microscopic levels to the cartridge cantilever/stylus trying to follow those " mountains " that are the LP groove modulations during playback where down there exist tremendous forces and stylus tip like hurricane movements that no single unipivot ( no matters what ) tonearm is stable. Unipivots are a forbidden tonearm for any cartridge .

 

I respect your opinion about but that unipivot tonearm really can't helps for any cartridge can showed at its best.

@three_easy_payments, I have use 2 SUT, each for TT. 
both SUT have multiple loading input so pretty much easy to match .

@pindac, I did use SUT in my set up chain and so far so good, also valve is the only best sound i ever feel that wow factor bring me into analog.

@tablejockey, Doesn't the Basis fill the void left by the Classic? 
yes , basis separate motor and isolation make sound even blacker and low noise that’s why I think maybe can get even better with other TT. Especially if I can have stand alone pod for use different arm 

@honeyooi You have experience with SUT's, and like the way the device interfaces with a Valve Circuit. Do Note: My experience and one that has similarities reported on by others, is that a SUT is able to add a perception that a Rich Tone is being presented. I do feel the SUT's have their followers as a result of this trait being detected. The models selected are not only resulting from a matching exercise, but also those who have been demonstrated a selection, will lean toward the perception of Rich Tone that is most desirable to their unique preferences.

If you do decide to put in place a plan to experience new devices or even make changes. When all is at a place where you feel a new audible experience is being encountered and one that is wanted to be maintained, I suggest having a experience with a Head Amp' in place of the SUT. I can't help but feel this will add to your experience and be considered a worthwhile undertaking.

For me, it is the option to lean toward and away from a perception of Richness being presented, that really adds to the stimulus, feeling confident in the putting in place of methods to create this is a for me a valuable learning, and selecting Genre that realises the benefits of the available changes is quite an appealing exercise.  

After listening to a CS Port TAT1M2 table I can now say YES a table makes a HUGE difference. TAT1M2  (Dealer disclaimer)
