Brian,
I agree with Adam, don't stress out over your choices, you seem to be looking at good gear regardless of what you end up choosing. I recently when through the same research you are and finally landed with a Sota Star (vacuum platter) and a Rega RB300 arm with a Dynavector 10X4 MkII cart. My albums, some of them as much as 40 years old, have never sounded so good. So my totally subjective opinion would be the Sota table with a Rega arm and a Dyna cartridge. If you buy a new Sota table, they will be happy to mount and adjust your arm and cart to the correct arm board. Good Luck!
