If you have the two items mentioned you're really well set. For me it was a turntable that kept the speed constant with no pitch variation. A Technics 1200 MK6 did it for me. I have several MM, an MI and an HOMC and LOMC cartridges. I don't find their subtle differences critical.
I've found for me that a good line stage preamp is more an improvement in the sound than the few phono preamps I've used. And lastly, the loudspeaker is the most important. High sensitivity from this website was the end of my wanderlust.
