Hi Chuck
What is the current table you have and what cart is on it? Could it just be that it could just needs a new stylus or cart even?
For phono preamps under $400 new I would say look at the Jolida JD9 phono preamp (There have been many a thread posted here praising this preamp). A phono preamp that I currently own and enjoy is a Cambridge Audio 640P phono preamp. Best of all it can be found for under $200.
As for budget TTs the recommendations are what others told me when I was looking for new budget TTs. I'd also add the Pro-Ject Debut III TT.
