Cartridge mounting
If it bothers you so much then why don’t you do it? It sure ain't brain surgery! 
Which speakers do I pick and are they close in quality

A litlle help for choice of speakers up to €5500 (used or new)

aluminum platter vs Acrylic not what I thought
@tzh21y The best platters that VPI made were the lead ones. They had to stop making them due to the new environmental laws ( no lead) 20 years ago. VPI claims that these were better than all the others!

VPI Player or ? for under 1500
Go for a better table and upgrade the preamp later. Take one step at a time!
