What to update first: pre or power amp?
I had the 88 and went to the M120's and saw a huge improvment. It just goes to show you that 2 people can do the same thing and not have the same sense of change.I think the 88 is not a very good amp. I would switch amps first. And as soon as you ... 
SS vs Tube for preamp ?
Yup, sold it. Besides,this post was before I bought the BC3.The Rogue magnum 99 did not rest good with me. It was pleasent to listen to. but lacked something. I tried the BC3 and didn't like it at all. At first I thought it was a lot better than t...

I was sitting here....
Here was my problem. A month or two ago I bought the Vpi HW19jr TT. I was using a Rogue Magnum M120/99 combo. Everything sounded real good. I got a bug up my ass to sell the 99 and I did. I bought a Blue Circle BC3.Well, the BC3 took a day or two ...

Hey, my tastes vary. I even was listening to Eminem tonight. Another great vinyl treasure. I buy everything in vinyl even if I have it on CD. I just don't do country or classical. I will rock, jazz, blues even hip-hop. But NEVER country!! 
VPI Scout
Yes, you will want to at least get the Vpi 16.5 for cleaning your records. Just a great machine,and fun to use. Every time I clean records, my wife thinks i am vacuuming my listening room floor :-)Also I would recommend trying the Graham Slee Era ... 
Rega or VPI
You should be very happy with the choice. Congratulations
