I know, its been awhile. The issue I was having turned out to be a bad cartridge. However, I wanted to comment on everything else you said which to summarize is "Pay UP$$" if your expecting the sound of Vinyl to match the clarity, detail, dynamics and quietness of digital. This is especially true if you've spent a fair amount building your digital system.
I have been upgrading my two channel system and theater to 4K vid. I have yet to take the analog plunge but when I do i'll be allocating 6K to start. I'll get some pretty stuff too, cause half the satisfaction is watching it work.
I've since heard some good analog systems. It's not that I think all things sound better but I will say I feel less listening fatigue with a good analog system.
