REST IN PEACE - TIM MROCK
Very sorry for your loss. I followed and commented on PPT products with some scepticism yet keeping an open mind to these new technologies. Looking forward to trying something someday.  
SOTA Sapphire aquired
Does that also power the vacuum? 
Worth the $$ to upgrade my tonearm?
Look at an Audiomods arm which is based on a Rega arms. Not sure of your options of adjustment on the Michell (Gyro) table but a Jelco 550 will be a solid improvement and an 850 a substantial upgrade. Not too expensive from Gem Dandy.

We know! The only problem is that the adjustments have to be done on a real cartridge. I guess you're talking about practicing set up itself. Thing is, it is a delicate procedure no matter what. No coffee or alcohol!

Schiit Mani vs Atoll P200SE Phono Preamp
The Rega 3 is a solid entry-level table. It will work well with a decent MM cartridge and the Schiit Mani. Leave the Mani on permanently if possible and will sound best after a few days. 
Dipping my toe in
Consider rolling the tubes in the Modulus preamp.  
Unsolvable Woofer Pumping (Phono only)
Do you have many warped records? Could it be that you are storing them horizontally, on top of each other? Or exposing them to heat? 
Why no “Break in” period?
Nothing weirder than a bunch of people listening in reverence to a $250,000 system and coming to the same private conclusion that it's crap. Or it's the hotel room.
