What to upgrade to?

I will be retiring at the end of the year or earlier depending on the Covid virus.  Anyway I am looking for that last upgrade to my system.  I will be looking at either upgrading my analog system or loudspeaker.  I have about 10k in a complete turntable and my speakers retailed for 12k about 5 years.  Both I could live with in retirement and be quite happy. But I have $15k - $20k to spend if I want to on either upgrading my turntable or speakers.  What would you upgrade? Turntable or speakers?

I know the op targeted table or speakers , but its worth talking about phono preamp too.

Also spreading the budget could work too. Maybe better cart &/or SUT or phono. Maybe subwoofer? So many variables.
3012 arm?

If the OP is all-analog or at least mainly analog then two complete turntables would be a lot of fun. Get a sense of what the Lenco does versus another topology and all that side by side. Plus if there is a higher mass arm in the mix as well as the SME V the door is open to try all manner of carts!
