It's great to read the OP's positive feedback, we are not always favoured with this.
He has been thorough with his investigations - and what a great relief that the cartridge is still working. The valves and the smoothing and the surge resistors will run very hot. In terms of improving the sound quality there's not much you can do, these budget players are what they are - and this one uses the most basic of any type of valve amplifier. Sometimes fitting a larger loudspeaker (especially one with a soft suspension) can help, but there may not be sufficient room for one.
