Wow an old album that rocked your world
Ann Peebles - I Can’t Stand The Rain (1974) produced by Willie Mitchell.  
Do any still use an older high end tuner from the past?....
I don’t believe it fits your SOTA criteria but I’m still using my Yamaha T500. And for some reason it’s been a regular part of the rotation lately. Usually my listening leans towards physical media.  
Separates or Integrated? What makes more sense?
For 10K, I think I would have to seriously consider separate’s. Hope to get lucky and find some used or demo Luxman gear.  
Pat Travers fans unite!!!
Makin’ Magic is a stellar LP. Still gets a regular spinning after all these years.  
Looking At CD Players
I own an Oppo 105, 205 and a Bryston CDP-3. I do like the versatility of the Oppo players. I find them to be a tad on the accurate or bright side which might be to your liking. I much prefer the Bryston for red book playback. 
So many great golden era DD tables out there, what do you recommend for $1000?
No idea what price you can find one for but another vote for the the Denon line up. Anything from a DP-59 up to the DP-80. I have a 35+ plus year old Denon DP-72L that still works flawlessly.  
Most impressive small footprint speaker
Epos M16i. Small footprint? Check. Dimensions: 35.4" (885mm) H by 7" (175mm) W by 8.4" (210mm) D (without grille). Full Range? Pretty close. 2 1/2 way down to 20 KHz. Cost no object? Absolutely not! I’m fortunate to have the space for a number of ...

I’m gob smacked. What were you’re aha moments?
@millercarbon. You’re a tweaker. That’s so not me. Not my skill set. I’m more a set it and forget guy. But gonna look into your anti-static advice. Static electricity is brutal where I live.  
I’m gob smacked. What were you’re aha moments?
That’s great that it was tubes for both of you. I’m still plotting/planning my way there. Hopefully another aha moment to look forward to 😎

Enjoy your Harbeth’s. I have a pair of SHL5+ in backup to my Monti’s. I get to switch back and forth between a boxed and unboxed sound. They complement each other very well.  
Purchase advice: Old turntable vs. new....
I’m a big fan of vintage DD turntables. Original owner of a 30+ year old Denon DP72 that is still going strong. Got a DP62 in backup and just got a great deal on a Kenwood KD500 in good working order. You said it “Gigantic and Tremendous”
