Turn table set up
Dont worry the discussion/research about the correct height of the arm will last as long as humankind itself, its easy to experiment with , it doesnt cost any money and you cant break anything. 
Koetsu owners cartridge set up ?
The measurements on almost live tell nothing of the output at a certain frequency, what i sometimes read about listening experiences of koetsus and the cheaper models in particular is that they have a roll off at the frequency extrememes.There are... 
Who heard the Mark levinson 53 monos?
The response is overwhelming , are they confiscated by the CIA ? 
Turn table set up
Nice table i have one myself , take the imbus screwtool unlock the VTA tower which consists of a ring you then can rotate down what will in turn make the arm drop, you still need a gauge though , its not hard to set up and if you buy a digital sca... 
Koetsu owners cartridge set up ?
I have an Urushi Wajima, if a cartridge doesnt have extended highs you would have to see considerable loss of output higher up the frequency range, i reckon all the koetsus will stay within plus minus 0,5 dB over the range 2o hz 2o khz or maybe ev...

Yeah i ve turned the weight down a little , 1.91 grams at the moment .I dont know why people call it overly warm or slow i would call it realistic at least in my set up which is not very "bloomy" in the first place ,dynamics are also fine in my view. 
Thiel 3.7 vs Wilson Sasha

ARC Tube preamp suggestions
LS 25 i liked also a lot , a bit more precise and luxurios sounding than the LS 8 and SP 6 B which i owned for 2 respectively 4 years . 
which preamp match best with Krell Evo 402 ?
I read you ve bought the ARC already , also a nice choice, A zanden pre/ powerful solid state combo should also be nice i think i havent seen it anywhere yet 
which preamp match best with Krell Evo 402 ?
I would also suggest a tube preamp or a Marklevinson pre which i also like , but bringin in some bloom is a good thing and there are lots of good tube designs to choose from , if you talk squicky clean/dynamic and want phono as well than a plp is ...
