Best low budget speakers for a Levinson 383 Integrated amp
Thank you everyone for your recommendations.Forgot about the CF4's I've got in the closet. When the amp arrives, I'll hook those bad boys up. in the mean time, love hearing everyones thoughts.     
Used speaker suggestion for Levinson 383 Integrated amp
The Levinson didn't have enough juice to run em. I like Revels, especially their high end stuff but they need serious power.

@jond I misunderstood. There was a 35th anniversary of the Harbeth I saw on Ebay. Not familar with the speaker but I'm sure it's good. Great info all around.

Great suggestions coming in! And the harbeth M30.1 35th anniversary are vintage. I'd rather roll with vintage but that can be challenging when it comes to speakers. I use vintage tables, arms and carts.

Thanks for checking in folks. As you can see, I already had the Revels and wasn't impressed with the combination of the two. There are best choices, I've made many best choices in my system. The revels were't one of them, not with this amp.   
Anyone ever listened to a vintage Victor Laboratory X1 cartridge
The Victor X-1 cart arrived this morning from St.Petersburg and is mounted on my 1200GR. Wow, it's good. It's REALLY good!

Source for resistors for an acoustech/sutherland phono preamp
I just reached out to Michael Percy regarding some high quality 47k, 100K, 100R, 1000R rca plugs for my JLTI that I'm finally using after 3 years. It had a terrible hiss, so I put it in the closet. Recently Chakster helped me get the Luxmann up wi... 
Luxmann PD444 is up and spinning!
@tonykay not the same one. Thanks for commenting. I just mounted my second arm tonight, the Victor UA-7082 and an Argent 110 MC, both NOS stock. Sounds amazing.

He's doing great. Feisty as ever! Chewed my ass the other night as we set up the FR 64X tonearm. But as you all know, that's the Chakster! Tomorrow were setting the Victor UA-7082 tonearm and the Argent 110 MC cart. Then the Victor!

My cart should be arriving in a week or so. Going on my Technics 1200 GR. I'll let you all know how it goes. I know already it's going to be killer. I'm talking to Chakster as I type this :)

Good to hear from everyone. Believe it or not, our time traveling friend Chakster sold it to me but you probably already expected it. He wanted to me to remind Raul that it was one of his "favorite carts" My sample is NOS with the beautiful case ... 
Klipsch CF4's. Worth keeping or let me go!?
