I’ve currently got a Project Debut Carbon using the standard Ortofon Red 2M cartridge. This runs into a Yamaha Aventage 770 receiver and out to Klipsch RP600Ms. It all sounds “fine”, but not “great”. I’m looking to upgrade but not sure where to start. I’ve been looking at the Ortofon Blue cartridge, or some kind of phono pre-amp (Project S2?). The Yamaha has a phono input, but I’m not sure if using a phono preamp would make a noticeable improvement.
Obviously it would be great to just buy both but that’s not an option right now. Any help would be appreciated.
