Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade?


Hi. I love my system. I really do. I love vinyl and listen to vinyl nearly exclusively via “appointment listening”. I do Sometimes stream and listen while I walk or while working but I love just sitting and listening to my stereo. I believe I’ve arrived regarding finally achieving a great set up and have experienced that vinyl “magic” that audiophiles obsess over. I understand that limitations exist and a great stereo will reveal the quality of a recording - good or bad. The law a diminishing returns regarding  upgrading is something I’m mindful of. I don’t have endless funds to spend on upgrades. My question is - what should I consider upgrading next? Should I ditch the integrated amp considering I’m using an external phono stage? Or should I go with a better integrated amp? Or should I look at a better cartridge? Do I upgrade my turntable or just the tonearm? Do I upgrade the power cable on my amp? 
Here’s what I’m currently working with - and thanks for your thoughts/suggestions! 

Clear Audio Concept Turntable
W/ Hana SL cartridge 

Herron Audio VTPH-2a Phono Stage

Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum II integrated power amplifier 

Kimber Kable speaker wire and interconnects (I forget which model - an entry lever set - nothing crazy) 

Bowers and Wilkins 805 D3 stand mount loud speakers

Set of two stereo REL S/510 subs

Hello, all this talk about a new tonearm is very interesting.  I have a different suggestion.  I owned a VPI classic turntable for years.  One day the unipivot pushed me TOO far.  After futzing with the turntable for years I put it up for sale.  Three is one really good thing about a VPI, it's retail value.  Instead I purchased a Pro-Ject RPM 10 Carbon Turntable.  It's filled with a metal/resin particulate and sits on its own isolation table that is filled the same.  I was SHOCKED at the difference of isolation.  This metal/resin particulate allows vibration to drain out.  I can blast my record now with pure clean sound.
O.K.  here comes the recommendation....
An isolation table for your fine turntable to sit on.  At that point you will be amazed at how much better your system sounds.
