Insider or Outsider? To be or not to be,...?
 Well I certainly won't be shelling out. And count me as one of the nonbelievers in all the fantastical cable and fuse threads so I guess it's accomplishing what is intended.   I really don't sell much on here and just come on for the entertainmen... 
Thoughts about the entry level room in RMAF - 2018
Yeah Israel's a real 🍑 🙄+1 Danoroo 
Help me pick from my sub-$1200 shortlist
 My first high end pair of speakers were a pair of Vandersteen 2c's that I paid about 500 for. I would  strongly advise considering a pair of those in that price point.  
Top used turntables under $500
 If you can do the micro DD 40 for that budget that's a great table.  I have one that came with and MA 505 arm that by itself goes for between 5 to 800 bucks.  Much better than anything you could get new for anywhere's near that money. Also if you... 
Talk but not walk?
 Michael that's kind of hypocritical! You say you want everybody to have a voice without discrimination, but the minute somebody calls you on something or asks  you something that you don't like you call them a troll!

 By all accounts atmosphere pre-'s are pretty fantastic  
Replacing generic RECEPTACLES
 This thread reads like a comedy gone bad.   Anyone with an inkling  of how this stuff works would spend a half an hour rolling around laughing on the floor.

 Sleepwalker nice to hear another voice of reason. But I can assure you, you might as well save your breath..... 
Advice on pre-amps needed
 I would not suggest limiting yourself only to preamps with the onboard phono stage.  Your options open up a lot more if you go with separates.  
Core Power Technologies
Or a transformer might hum if it's being starved for current. you could measure your incoming voltage and if it's high that I could be part of the problem.  
Subwoofer advice
 I am not saying  Mr. decibel is wrong, you may find that you notice the woofers on the Harpeth struggling. But I would doubt it given the size of your room.   If you do you can just add a simple capacitor in line to your main speakers to accompli... 
Subwoofer advice
I run my mains full range and only run across over to my subs to fill in the bottom. I don't notice the mains struggling at all, they just naturally roll off below 50 as they normally would. Given the OP has such a small room I would suggest to st... 
Solid State vs. Tubes - What if Transistors came first?
What I find interesting in the Tubes versus transistor debate, is the prices of vintage items. A stereo 70 goes for much more than it did new where as a 30 year-old solid state amp is hard to give away. 
Talk but not walk?
"Left field tweaks utilizing unproven nonsense supported by gibberish like inserting the term "Quantum" here and there, and selling useless stuff on to the public at a huge profit ($2 fuses for 150 bucks that do nothing but stimulate the imaginati... 
“Sharp Objects” Tonearm/ Cartridge
They should have used tubes if the underlying theme is everything old is new again!  Besides it's not state of the art sound unless it has tubes 😁
