How to divide a budget between components
I know that this is always a spirited discussion, but will weigh in nonetheless. I am certainly of the opinion that trasnducers make the biggest impact. So cartridge and speaker are going to make the biggest difference since they are responsible f... 
ATC scm40 or Spendor A9
I'll be at AXPONA as well. ATC are high on my list of speakers I want to hear there. Especially the active versions which get a lot of praise. What ATCs I have heard were mighty impressive.Too bad Spender won't be there, true. But you will hardly ... 
Transformers humimg........again
I'll also suggest an AVA Humdinger. They have a 30 day return policy, and maybe giving AVA a call would be a good call.If they for some reason also don't want to sell you one, shoot me a message and we can see about having you try my Humdinger out...

Lampizator question
Huh? Gotta say that last post doesn't make a lot of sense to me. What is the big issue there? That they have a lot of models and offer customers multiple customization options? Sounds like a good thing to me. They should be concerned with keeping ... 
Equitech Model Q vs PS Audio P10
That's good to know. Love my Equitech 2Q, and have wondered how the P10 might compare. Can you say more about the differences you heard? 
What makes a better phono cable ?
I'd recommend taking advantage of the Cable Company's lending library of cables if you don't have the ability to audition in your system locally. Cables are so system dependent.Though I should also point out that Audience takes the interesting app... 
cartridge demagnetization
And what demag devices do folks recommend?

Please tell us how you like it. 
Rock and roll speakers?
I'd think Vandys in that price range would be a bit laid back for rock-and-roll
