Heartfelt condolences to his family, and there will be much music appreciation tomorrow to celebrate Lugnut's spirit. 
Denon vs. Denon was Kramer vs. Kramer
Well said Phil! 
Best cartridge under $800 for Graham 2.2
So you don't like brightness. From reports (no personal experience), both the Benz Glider and the Shelter seem to be your best bets from the list so far. I have heard the Benz Ace cartridge, which I found to be very pleasing, musical and smooth, q...

It would help if you described what you are after: what did you like and not like about the Grado and the Ortofon? 
GOLDRING LENCO L70 TURNTABLE
Your best bet is to go to Lenco Heaven to ask this question, at http://lencoheaven.proboards30.com/. 
What Turntable to buy under $600 ?
Pauly, "It is easier to write upon the water, than to teach a fool anything" (Khalil Gibran), a fool being someone who refuses to learn what he does not want to learn, meaning he will never learn anything of value and so remain a fool. The quotes ...

What Turntable to buy under $600 ?
Now I feel sory for Dvdgreco, he's been cast into a shark-filled tank, but glad to see you haven't been scared off! There are large differences in sound between these various 'tables (and between your Technics and the heavier ones), but in wanting... 
What Turntable to buy under $600 ?
Heresy is my bread and butter, no disingenuousness here, and "facts" as you say, are not facts, which IS disingenuousness. If the Regas can track upper-level Kisekis, then they can track upper-level Koetsus (as they in fact do). I fail to see how ... 
What Turntable to buy under $600 ?
Lots of good suggestions here, the trouble now with the resurgence of interest in vinyl (the other day in the used shop teenagers were agog at the records - Hey take that Abba!...My God that's early Punk!" - and talking about buying record players... 
What Turntable to buy under $600 ?
Like all threads, which are a form of conversation, the subject strays from the path, which is what makes it interesting. The least finicky and simple good-quality musical turntable for a beginner is the Rega P3, which might indeed be all the turn... 
The effect of the Expanding Universe on turntables
But what if light loses energy over extremely long distances, as has been proposed by certain physicists? If this is so, then there is no expanding universe and turntables remain as they were created. In fact the Lencos support this theory, since ... 
ZYX RS20 vs Denon DL103
Tease! 
Please recommend Best MM catridge
First post I asked already, and still no peep. It is a Mystery. And why no Grado Woody recommendations?! 
Please recommend Best MM catridge
I was recently blown away by a Denon DL-110, so very definitely I would recommend at least the Denon high-output MCs, which also includes the DL-160, which has a following all its own. Knowing what tonearm/turntable you have would help in recommen...
