3k budget for Turntable and Phono Noob- do I need external power supplies?

Music Hall Stealth DD table with universal mount tonearm, VTA adjust and 2M Blue cart. Add a Schiit Mani2 And some interconnects all for under $2K.  Buy a spare headshell and a Sumiko Bluepoint 3 LOMC for an option…$2500.00. Then, listen to music. Unspent money can go to more carts and headshells, vinyl, or a cleaner.

MoFi Ultradeck + cartridge on sale 1k off, excellent sonic buy.  Many great reviews. 

thanks very much

thus far the advice seems clear, put my money into the equipment first

I'll do just that

is it worth considering the various Project balanced setups?

I do much prefer running into the XLRs on my amp generally speaking

I tried a balanced connection with a Thorens TD1600, an AT-OC9XML, and Pro-Ject PhonoBox DS3.  I didn’t find it to be superior in any way.  When I switched to a Technics SL100C with unbalanced connections, I got lower noise with all my cartridges.  Not a panacea, at least in my experience.

thank you

dealer offered me a good price on a project x2b with mc cart, alongside the entry level project balanced phono

have been considering it, he also offers good prices on all rega prodcuts
