Have you tried Audio Classics? 
Arm Heighth on VPI Classic
The best thing about the VPI arm is that it has repeatable VTA adjustment capability. Knock yourself out, only you can determine if it's a worth the effort. 
Arm Heighth on VPI Classic
There are 2 set screws. One is located on the VTA tower pillar and the other is located on the dog leg support which is near the tonearm lift mechanism. 
Zu or Totem or ProAc?
Totem's monitors do not have benign impedance curves and are not considered tube friendly (Model 1,Mani-2). Their floor standards are easier to drive but still require power to make them sing. Totem always shows their speakers with ss.IMHO, Totems... 
SP-10 Mat
Just talked to my friend and he tells me the 3M Artist adhesive is similar (if not the same) as the adhesive used for Post-it notes. 
Zu or Totem or ProAc?
I really like ProAc with tubes. Totem typically like SS due to their thirst for power. I have not heard the Zu Superfly's. I would add a pair of Reference 3A MM de Capo BE speakers to that list and perhaps Merlin TSM - MMM. 
Amplifier with the best Bass?
If you don't mind an older amp, the Krell KSA 250 was a bass champ. 
SP-10 Mat
A friend uses 3M spray adhesive to adhere his mat to the platter. 3M makes a product that does not make a permanent bond to the material called "artist adhesive".

Mofimadness's response was the first thing that came to mind when I read your post. 
Accuphase A-65 or A-200 , can i import from Japan?
What kind of savings are we talking about? Half price? 
Accuphase A-65 or A-200 , can i import from Japan?
Some distributors will not service grey market items. I would contact Accuphase USA first before buying. Alternatively, why not ask Accuphase Japan to sell you NA spec'd amp. 
Stringreen, how is the 3D tonearm doing?
From a previous Stringreen post, I understand that VPI has developed a new counter weight that has an integrated fine VTF adjustment and some other features that makes the 3D arm set up a breeze. As for the Classic series arms, don't forget that t... 
Dream System: Magico + Coincident + Wavelength ?
Hi Charles1dad, I have never heard any Magico speakers, therefore, I cannot comment on their sound. The Verity Parsifil Ovations are very natural and musical just like the Coincident, but are more room and placement friendly due to the optional re... 
Dream System: Magico + Coincident + Wavelength ?
I used an 845 SET amplifier with Verity Parsifil Encores prior to purchasing Coincident speakers. Given the choice today, I would take the new Parsifil Ovations over my Coincident. If you are looking at used Verity’s, I whole heartily recommend th...
