Need opinions asap. Thoughts on the turntable here or I can put it on that little desk currently under the window. Either way it'll be on its own platform. If I put it on the desk that 2x1 will be removed and the 2x4 will be off center to the tv so I can open the vpi fully 
Mines about that close to my speaker. Once that cabinet is full of records it should be solid enough to keep any vibrations out.

So I wasn't planning on putting any albums in there. If it's on the desk I assume I'll have the same problem?
I don't think you'll have an issue on the Kallax even without albums, it's probably heavy enough with whatever goes in there. The desk would likely be fine too.
Yep similar my left speaker is also equally close to the turntable but on a hifi stand containing all my gear, including the 35kg tube power amp I’m not worried about vibrations.
As @Mather said the weight of the records will do similar and I’d not be too fussed.

Option 2
I would move the speaker a little more to the right

I like it on the Kallax, and that’s almost identical to how I’m set up.
I don’t like the idea of sun on my records through the window.

Remember this is all so a TV isn't over a fireplace
Moving sucks so bad. I feel your pain.
A noble pursuit to be sure.

Well that pretty much settles it. Is weight needed?
If you’re putting the table on the same surface as the prima luna that thing weighs a fucking shit tonne. Unless you plan on running a nightclub out of there the speakers aren’t going to move it.
Likely not, but I’d fill it with records.

2800 miles. They lost 1 box of records on the truck but found it today. They also put a nice bend in the corner of the tv but it's all getting sorted
Not necessarily but the kallax are built so that they are more stable with some weight in/on them.

I am not looking forward to setting it up tonight but no it'll be on its own surface isolated. I'm assuming it's better for it to be on its own 2x1 instead of with the rest of the gear on the 2x4
I guess I could put the "to listen to" on there
