Speakers with deep/powerful bass
Cerwin Vegas!   
need amp recommendations for more separation of instruments
Don’t forget to factor in the recording itself. Try to find a reference album or song that you know the recording itself is top notch then you’ll have something to reference as you make changes/adjustments to your system. Good luck!   
New Cartridge or New Preamp
Check the Manley if you like tubes. I’m still running the same tubes in mine since new almost 5 years ago. Biggest thing I noticed is the background gets really dark and the clarity.

Primaluna. Evo 400 - bass issues

Anything close to Hegel H360 but smaller/lighter?
Check out the Peachtree Nova 500 integrated. Great amplifier and dac. I have the Gan400 with the PreDac. I started with the Nova 150 and the 300. I chose to do separates otherwise the Nova 500 would have been my choice.   
Can someone help me pick out my first speakers?
@pehrafano What did you end up going with? Just curious.   
Which ones should I choose? Tannoy Kensington Gr or B&W 804 D4
From a purely aesthetic prospective I like the Tannoys. Two very different looking speakers obviously. Which one of them satisfies your eyes. I think that’s important too. Not as much as sound but you do want something that’s nice to look at.   
Try This With Your SS Amp
My tubes are trapped inside a box unfortunately.
