Go with your original thought...a LP12 with an Ekos will be a superb TT. Also, the Ekos or Ekos 2 is pretty much going to have no issue with the EMT cartridge. As to set up, unlike the many myths and other 'bs' about the table, once it is set up, it pretty much stays that way. Helps to have a good set-up man, but that's true with all TT's.
Power supply is fairly important, a Valhalla is ok...a Lingo 3 better and by far best: is the Radikal D...if budget allows, I would try and get a LP12 Radikal D.
