Upgrade Phonostage


Have a BAT 10SE Phonostage with a MicroBenz LPS cartridge on a Classic Turntable. I am considering upgrading the phonostage with a superpak. Would love to hear from people who have upgraded to the superpak. What differences should I be hearing and is the upgrade worth the money. Have a Ref 3 preamp with a Pass Labs 350.5 amp and Final 1000 electrostatic speakers with a JL F110 sub. All comments appreciated.

At the levels you are thinking about, upgrades become more a matter of taste than actual betterment. A little deeper or tighter bass, more extended highs, a more liquid midrange. But often you must give up something to get the other.

As for upgrading the power supply, I did find my system to be cleaner and more open when I added the outboard Simaudio FSX5.3 to my LP5.3 phono. Als a greater ease to the sound.
