i use a hana umami with my 1200gae - really awesome!    
the cart or the horse?
could not agree more mr. charles. the higher quality the amp the better the omega will shine. there is certain delicate balance finding synergy with any single driver speaker but when it's achieved you are in for a real treat!

While I have not listened to this amp I bet it would provide wonderful synergy w the RS7 drivers. I have tried many amps w my Omega RS5 and the most engaging and full bodied are zero feedback low powered SET. On occasion, I run a little LTA MZ2 wi...

If you keep the omegas, which are great, stay away from amplifiers with high dampening. A quality set amp is the ticket.

Audio Research I/50
I went to PU a turntable last week and had a brief listen the the i/50 driving Davone Grande. The integrated looked slick, the speakers even better. The setup sounded pretty nice to my ears.   
Any thoughts on the Luxman PD 171

I elected to go for a Technics SL-1210 GAE for the new deck. I pick it up Jan 7th.    I am pretty stoked!
