I recommend that you start with a new cartridge; Ortofon Cadenza Bronze. From there go with a new table, perhaps a Rega P8 if you like Rega. I have a new P10 as one of my tables and I like it very much. After the table, I would begin experimenting with cables.
What's my best upgrade options
Hello Audiogon forum,
I have an opportunity to upgrade something, but I'm unsure what the best option would be. I just got a pair of Magico A5s, and they were a huge upgrade to my system. I think what I'm looking for is more clarity, more crystal clear detail, maybe lower noise floor, if that makes sense. I have an ARC Ref 150, PS audio BHK pre and stellar phono pre. My sources are a Rega P3 with an older Ortofon MC 30 and a Cary audio CD500 cd player. My cables are a mix of whatever I got from a dealer buying complete systems a long time ago, and some i've bought since. I also have a surge protector I run everything thru, except the amp, I run it directly into the wall.
My options are a PS audio power conditioner, a rega P6 with newer ortofon MC cartridge, maybe a PS audio CD player or jay's audio CD player. I could also get better speaker cable, and / or XLRs.
Thanks y'all. 1st post!
