need help on minimal analog set-up


Thanks in advance for any help. I am considering an analog only set-up for my small study. Turntable/phono/pre/headphones only. maybe future small speakers. I have an old Mitsubishi LT-5V turntable that i am thinking of resurecting. i am not a big hardware man (serious software collection), my living rooom system consists of nads, rega 25 and rega Rega Super Elys, lehmann black cube, totem sig 1's, cardas and kimber wire. Any recs on cartrige for the mits, or dump the mits, phono /pre/ headphones, etc? say i invest 4k total, used. would be interested in tube.

thanks again,
gary

Phono set up? headphones? Tubes?

Monolithic Sound PS-1, Melos SHA-1/2/3 tube headphone amp/linestage pre & some decent used SS amp.

Speakers: how big is the room? Will near field speakers do the job?

TT: bring your Rega...
Thanks for the input.
The room is 12'x 16'. concrete floors, 3' concrete low wall, 3' of glass above that, and a hard gabeled ceiling.
I believe the discontinued Anthem Pre-1 by Sonic Frontiers has phono and a headphone amp. Used probably +/- $500.

Buy used and you're way under 4 grand.
