Table upgrade: SOTA Comet? or ?

Thanks for the feedback! I failed to note my phono pre is the Pro-ject Tube Box 2 w/stock tubes...Also, I too was not convinced the BP2 was all that great, but at the time it seemed OK.... I like the cart/phono pre upgrade idea as long as the Pro-ject can do it justice.

Take a look at this one!

Not knowing anything about the rest of your system and knowing that this is a process I would strap that Blue Point to the best table arm combo I could afford, with that said I would look in the used market for a VPI Classic or better still a Scoutmaster and enjoy the BP till I could upgrade it later, it really isn't a bad cart and you will be surprised by the level you can achieve with a really good table. I recommend VPI because that is where my experience is. Good luck.

Get rid of those stock tubes first thing in your phono stage that is your first upgrade. Then like others I’d go for a better cart. If you can swing it a MC will be a huge step up to better sound, something like the audio technics at-art 9 is a huge value at around $1000 new. Look around for tubes but a good source is the tube store and other similar
