Need help: turntable market in the $1500-$2000 range is overwhelming
Sota tables appear quite nice and are well regarded. VPI also has an offering in that price range. If you’d like to save a grand, the U-Turn Orbit is very nice.

Which aes/ebu cable? CCA Magnum Opus, Audio Sensibility Signature, or RAL Prophecy Ref?
They all appear to be fine quality cables. Perhaps audition whichever has the finest return policy?

Some cheap AC power cables from Amazon

Anthem STR or BHK (PS Audio) preamp?? Thoughts
The BHK is a fine unit. The tube stage is nice. Have never heard the STR. It appears to be about 2 grand cheaper. Looking at their website, it appears to be a very nice unit. 
Why is science just a starting point and not an end point?

The Worst Room...
mapman The Ohm Walsh appear to be a great solution for this issue. I’ve read many of your posts over the years regarding these speakers. Once a used set becomes available in a location somewhat near here....
