Phonostage recommendations under $3K
I own both the Herron VTPH2A and the Parasound JC3 Jr.    Honestly, you’d probably be happy with both but the Herron is one of my favorites. 
Can anyone recommend an FM Receiver that would play into a relatively high end system?
One of you mentioned the McIntosh MR87, another of you the MR78....are these 2 different models or did one of you just transpose the digits?    Thanks (too lazy to look it up ;-).—Jim

I agree the Herron VTPH 2A.   Finally, after hearing the same advice over & over, from audiophiles who I trust, I just upgraded to the VTPH-2A, from a Parasound JC-3 Jr., and I am extremely happy.   Keith (Herron) will build one just for you, ... 
Most annoying song, period.
Yikes!!   One of my favorite songs (or favorite bands really) happens to be on this list as another person’s most annoying.   Can’t say which one, else I’d never hear the end of it from all of you fine fellow audiophiles.    Just goes to show, you... 
SoundSmith Counter Intuitive for VPI tone arms
Any problem getting the “friction fit” to fit properly?   I saw feedback somewhere that said they had to manually sand the inside of the SoundSmith to get it to fit properly?
