Rega RP8 Clearaudio Concept Wood or...?
Or the Pr0-Ject 10.1 for that matter. Anybody heard the two? 
Rega RP8 Clearaudio Concept Wood or...?
Yeah, I'm really curious about the Xtension tables, especially the 10. I like their cartridges and clearly enjoyed the 5.1. Hard to find a place to hear them, but maybe a road trip is in order. 
Integrated to go with KEF LS50
I have run both the Wyred4Sound mInt and the Rogue Sphinx with my LS50s and like both. The Sphinx is particularly well matched, and I like the sound of the tub preamp. The W4S has a fantastic DAC. The Sphinx has a very solid phono stage. You can't... 
moving magnet cartridge suggestions for rp8?
I had a AT150MLX on my Rega RP8 and was not a huge fan of the combo (and I really like that cartridge). There is a chance that it was due to a break in period after retipping it, but it sounded very lean. I know it is not much help as it is a MC c... 
Rega RP8 cartridge?
I have a Zu 103 on my RP8 with a Groovetracer counterweight. I think that they sound fantastic together. I'm fairly certain that the Zu guys take that combo to most of the shows. That combo would come in well below your budget. It's a great match ... 
Upgrade from Technics 1200 MK2? $1-$1.5k budget
Is the 750D or the 750L the right arm for the 1200? 
Best Cartridge for technics sl1200mk2
I believe that I spent some time with the Zu 103 on the Sumiko headshell on the Technics tonearm. I then put the SME 309 arm on with the Zu and it was a very noticeable jump up. I'm now playing around with a Rega arm. 
Step up from AT150MLX on Technics 1200
I have the AT 150MLX (which I still cycle in on occasion). I replaced it with the Zu DL 103. I think that the Zu 103 is a fantastic cartridge. Super musical. Very engaging. Well worth the money but still within a 'reasonable' price point. 
Best Cartridge for technics sl1200mk2
I have been using the AT150MLX and the Zu Audio modded Denon 103 for years on a 1200. Both sound fantastic. The AT is certainly a bit less finicky and will work with a wider arrary of phono stages. The Zu 103, however, is a thing of beauty -- very... 
KEF LS50
I am using Kimber 8TCs with my LS50s and love them. They replaced a set of DHLabs T-14s (which have been my back ups for eons) and are bigger and more detailed than them. 
KEF LS50
Has anyone found a good match in terms of speaker cables? I have played around a bit but have not settled yet. I'm really loving what these speakers can do. 
TECHNICS SL1200 MKII.......THE REAL FACTS
I found this (and some familiar old characters) and thought that I might spur a conversation about good cartridge matches. I have been running my 1210 with an SME 309 tonearm for a few years now--while not an expert, I do love the combination I en... 
Leben Owners: which speakers do you use?
I have to add that I am really liking the Quad 22L2's with the Leben. I had originally heard them with a Synthesis el84 amp and thought the sound was worth exploring. The Quads are a great match and super affordable for what they do. I am the afor... 
Which monitors for my tube system in a large room?
I recently went on a hunt for speakers for my room. I started with the Leben that you have. I ended up with two very different sets (kind of a long story how that happened). I got the Audio Note AN-K's and the Quad 22L2s. I listened to the AN-Es a...
