Why so few high end line arrays?
Comb filtering is a problem 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Raul, thanks much for the recommendation for the Sumiko! 
VPI Super Platter - where is it?
The new platter is very heavy and therefore, cannot be made out of only aluminum. It is heavily damped internally. I am impressed by Macdadtexas' comment and his "proper" a/b. Nuff said! 
Help me identify old cartridge.
I think it is a Monster Alpha 2 
30 ft rca run too long for a phono to preamp?
Mike, is your suspension on the tt working properly or is it getting hung up? I seem to remember the 147 as a sprung mount suspension. 
Sound quality degraded with phono-stage in path
Do you have the phono pre hooked into the integetrateds phono input? If so, that will sound BAADD...

Hello Raul, I did get one of those Sumikos. I'll report back once I get it mounted and dialed in. Looks like they're all sold. What do you think is the best way to very securely mount the cart. to the adaptor?

I agree with Eric. 
Record Cleaning Machine RCM
I think Bill calls "manual" as an rcm that one must rotate the record yourself, versus "automatic" which the rcm rotates and vacuums. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks Raul. I have a medium mass arm (10-11G) and wondered about the compatibility with the Nagaoka as well as the Reson. 
Record Cleaning Machine RCM
Hey Eric, have you tried a towel or a piece of carpet under the machine? It certainly helps lower the noise. It is a great machine, isn't it?

Tubetan, the spindle is hot because the motor is hot. You may try stopping the platter and letting the fluid soak on the record for a minute, it will help keep the motor cooler as well as giving the record fluid some time to work.
