SUT Opinions
The Miyajima makes since to pair with the preamp, I am also considering a Hashimoto as I had fantastic results when I used it with my Koetsu’s.  I was looking for SPU owners to get a feel for what success they had/have with SPU’s they were or are ...

Those were my thoughts so that’s why I made the initial response.  Thx for the feedback.

38db from the MM stage provides enough gain for a .2mv cartridge?

There is 38db from the mm phono pre in the EC-5. 
Looking for a new phono preamp
I have heard or owned most of these listed.  The Channel D is similar to the BMC phono I owned and the others are correct do not limit yourself on what cartridges your phono preamp can use.  In my opinion there is only 1 listed here to look at and... 
I nominate this company as building best speakers!

Need speaker advice
Horning Eufrodite speakers were fantastic with my 300b set amps and my Audio Tekne IT-2 11w tube amp.  
Von Schweikert speakers
I had DB-100’s and they were great through my SET amp phase, the others I have heard are uneventful to me. 
Innuos Zenith mk3 complete disappointment

Most hyped turntable, tonearm, and cartridge?
Entertain me and list the 3k modern tables that are better than any 301 or 124? And I am not talking about the new 20k or 15k tables. 
Best Speakers for a small Nearfield room, budget at most $10000 (used is also ok)
My room is a touch larger than yours and I replaced Harbeth 30.1’s with Magico S1 and they are better performers but do cost more money.  Other than room size what equipment are you using? 
New TT for ~$1500
It’s your coins to spend but you didn’t get a huge amount of support with your Rega and Project suggestions.  I would listen to our Russian buddy as he is a pretty knowledgeable vinyl source.  The Technics tables that were suggested are wonderful ... 
Who buy PS AUDIO ?
Owned a PS Audio Direct Stream Dac and compared it to a Audio Note Dac and posted the Direct Steam up for sale that day.  Have also had the BHK preamp in house for a audition and passed on it as well....lots of money for a touch over average perfo... 
My list of seller red flags
I disagree with all of it, if you don’t like the price, the description, trade or no trade don’t buy it.  I want the last 5 minutes back for even reading or replying to the original post.
