The nightmare of the cartridge buyer...
I didn't read all 227 of the current responses but I would seriously consider Soundsmith. A dedicated owner if there ever was one, and not just to cartridges or music but to people. I will be having him rebuild my Sumiko Blackbird for about a thir... 
Monitor Audio Pl 300ii vs. KEF Reference 5
Can't Agon silence this random letter/number generator or at least require a proof reader? 
Looking For 90% of the performane of the super expensive cables for much less money
No really. Try before you buy, in your comfortable price range. I bought a pair of solid gold braided but unshielded interconnects 17 years ago on Audiogon. The guy was just starting out somewhere in Central CA. Delta Labs, so I think I paid less ...

Inteligent high end cableing
Despite your title being oxymoronic (is that the opposite of redundant?), here is my two cents. I do not have golden ears, but I can tell you that it really is not going to matter IN THE BEGINNING, what you get. Get whatever the best deal seems to... 
Most Honest Audio Magazine?
Sterophile reviews now carry that same thread of reasoning that PBS has been allowed to adopt while remaining "commercial free"--- this is not an ad but here is our name, address, phone # and oh yeah exactly what we do while we 'support this stati...
