Brand New Vinyl Static and Pops
Surprised no one mentioned the 2 products that are said to remove static while playing the LP. I have no experience with them but after much investigation they seem to be worthwhile. Yes above the OP price point but just thought I'd mention them. ...

Kumza Stabi S or Rega P10 ??

If cartridge alignment isn't spot on you are just wasting $$$ IMHO  
Something other than Harbeth SHL5
Maybe Joseph Audio Pulsar's haven't heard them but have listened to their bigger brother the Perspectives which were amazing. I've read they are very similar except don't go as low but with your sub shouldn't be an issue.
