the table or the arm first?

Experts:

What is more important if one needs to choose between an excelent table with an standard arm, or a fine table with an excelent arm/cart?

I am asking this because I am standing in that position now, with the opportunity to buy an excellent table nut no money left to get more than an RB300, or upgrading my VPI HWMkIV and fit a serious arm like a Morch or SME.

You advise and guidance will be very valuable.

I went from a Michell badged RB-250 with Incognito wire, to an Audiomod Classic 4, with Incognito wire.  Was like going from a P-51 to an F-18, and they cost the same. It is not recommended to use unipivots on Avid's--not compatible with their design.

Neither - frame, engine, suspension.

Assuming the HW19-IV is in good working order, it is a perfectly fine table and would justify using a really good arm.  I would opt for a very good arm.  If the belt on the table is old, a replacement belt would also be a good investment.
