Upgrade options from Michell Gyro SE


I currently have a Michell Gyro SE/Technoarm with Sumiko Blackbird cartridge, and am pondering upgrade options. Do any previous Gyro SE owners have any experiences they can share on this? Thanks.

I thought my comments were perfectly clear - the movement from a SE to a Gyrodec( and not Gerodec!) is an upgrade.It has little sonic benefits coz you add an acrylic dustcover plus a superior record clamp. If like many Gyro owners you prefer to spin the platter with the dustcover in place, it should protect the stylus/cart from unwelcome vibrations.
One tweak or mod that I can strongly recommend is some thing I read about in a review on another site. Namely, wrap the springs(encased in aluminum cylinders) in cotton wool.You can use normal surgical cotton available at any pharmacy.The tweak is almost free.It dampens the ringing that Gert Peterson addresses in his several mods.Believe me the difference is not small.

I haven't tried any of the Peterson mods on my Gyrodec (there seem to be polarized opinions on the Peterson mods) but I think that playing vinyl with the dustcover on the Gyro (up or down) is a bad idea if you're seeking the best sound quality.

As to the original poster's question, I think that an arm upgrade would probably be an obvious choice unless one wants to go to a totally different table.
Shoegazer, I would upgrade the arm first to an RB600 or RB900. Then either the platter upgrade and next a cart. upgrade. I have an OrbeSE and my latest cart. and phonostage upgrades were the biggest improvements I have heard in a long time. The PH5 totally transformed my Orbe. I was seriously thinking my TT was a limiting factor but it was my phonostage (and I tried a few). I also dumped my use of a clamp. In my system it really degraded the sound. I'm still amazed by how much.
Thanks for the feedback. Does anyone have any experience upgrading to a different table altogether? I may consider this too.
A friend moved from a some Gyro version to a Galibier on my recommendation. To say he's pleased would be a serious understatement. Night and day. Camry to Carrera. Etc.
