rusty bearing

I'm in the rather nice position of being able to upgrade my existing setup which admittedly is a bit of a mish mash - a decent sounding mish mash mind :)
It's an odd collection of stuff that I've put together over the last say 20 years comprising
1. Birch plinthed Lenco GL75 with Origin Live Onyx arm and Hana SL cart
2. Exposure XM3 phono stage
3. Musical fidelity X150 Amp
4. Caimen DAC
5. Arcam CD72 cd player (laptop has no cd/dvd drive)
6. PMC GB1 speakers
Most, well all actually is ex demo, some from here or other used listings. The bulk of the vinyl I own is 60's - 70's stuff ranging from dear old Sabath to Fairport,
So I'm happy with the Lenco and phono stage but I would think they would benefit from a better amp and speakers but cant do both and with a budget right now of 1-2k I think amp first, speakers later. What would the general concensus be and of course suggestions welcome
Been casting covetous glances at primare, Audiolab, Bel canto, Arcam, and Exposure amongst others.
