Upgrade from TW Acustic Raven AC-3 to what?


I have had the TW turntable (with 10" Da Vinci Grandezza arm and Grandezza cartridge) for two years. I have been happy with this TT and can live with it for a long time although i wish it wasn't as dark sounding, that the soundstage could be more spacious and the bass tighter. The upgrade bug in me is wondering for 50K ore thereabout, is there a TT that is superlative over the TW? One that would end my upgrading itch for the next 10 years?

Knotless thead drive not difficult if you know what you are doing. Sorry about the pun.

I used Japanese embroidery silk which worked quite well by thread drive standards but is so far behind the state of the art that I dropped it as a commercial proposition. The fun part was that a huge range of colours is available - I used red, green and yellow and called it natty thread (with apologies to the late Bob Marley).
