Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage?


There is likely nothing wrong at all with present phono stage but you know how it is.

Present analog front end consists of.

Nottingham Analog Spacedeck with Spacearm.
Shelter 501 mk3 cartridge with maybe 250 hours on it, regularly treated with Lyra.
Dynavector P75 mk3 phono stage.
Feeds into Lyngdorf 2170 via Nordost Red Dawn RCA cables.

My thoughts were that possibly the Dynavector is the weakest link and would pay most dividend on an upgrade but.....

What do I perceive I am lacking right now?
Really hard to say as this is highest quality analog front end ever owned.
Possibly lacking a little in sheer scale and dynamics? Bass is very very good, instruments are well separated and defined.
Just as an overall presentation I feel it lacks that final wow factor as a whole.
Not sure if that makes any sense?
Please comment honestly especially if you feel it is another area that may reap larger benefits. Or if should just leave well alone....lol.

Oh btw I am fairly sure it is setup correctly in regards to vta etc, at least to the best of my abilities right now. And yes setting it up correctly from initial purchase did make considerable gains in sq.

uberwaltz is there anything that you dont like about the goldnote? I'm waiting for my unit to ship.
@rsf507 

At this stage I have zero complaints.
I just love the total flexibility of being able to change settings like gain and loading etc right from front panel.
This makes for easy instantaneous comparison and much nicer than opening up and moving jumpers etc.
It is extremely well built, almost a work of art to boot.
Nice touch is outputs on both xlr and RCA.
Also two sets of inputs so you could set up for 2 different cartridge and only have to flip from input 1 to 2.

A lot to like so far!
Oh...and it sounds pretty darn sweet too. Lol

Now all I need do is find a buyer for the Dynavector P75, which is a darn fine phono stage but not in the Gold Note league.
Al I've been contemplating getting the ART nine and I've been wondering what you think of it? I've been running a lyra helicon  and I absolutely love it but I'm not sure how many hours it has on it. 
 Sorry for the brief off-topic, sounds like the OP is really enjoying his phonostage so that's great! 
No problem Analogluvr
I too have been thinking about the art9 so would welcome any comments on it right here
