I think the Luxman you are considering is a "can't go wrong" move. It will provide a baseline for phono, line stage, and power amp that will each be difficult to beat, and it gets you going right out of the box without agonizing over which other components might or might not appeal to you and still work well together.
Harbeth Super HL5 Plus speakers are no slouches - they sound a lot like Quads to me - I'd give them a listen too, if possible.
The Concept/Maestro combo seems like a good way to start on a vinyl journey - it should sound great without spending $20K, until you are sure you want to go further in the vinyl pursuit. :)
