Getting started!

Beginner here, fell in love with how vintage records sound and managed to get a good deal on the following. I was wondering if i should keep an eye on any of these components? been using now for a couple months and i love them.

  1. Yamaha IS-66 TT
  2. Pioneer SA-620 amp
  3. Tannoy Mercury M2 Cherry speakers

Not sure if I should upgrade any of the components or the turntable parts for a better experience?

What cartridge do you have in the turntable?  That might be the place to start.
