how much should I spend to get a better turntable than my current turntable?
Don't understand the question!!! Are you asking us "what is your budget"? Regas are all a step up from what you have. Jasonbourne52 is right on the money with the Pioneer also Sony have decent machines..... So sort out your budget and if you d... 
I want to move from Rega Planar 6 help me to pick a new turntable
You seem to happy with the sound of your Rega P6, and rightly so! So why not upgrade to the best Rega Cartridge within your budget and call it a day since it will be perfectly aligned for your arm. Then concentrate on listening to music !  
Is this stylus worn out?
I am a long time Lyra Delos user (and before that Lyra Argoi). These are superb sounding cartridges if set up properly. There are a few points to consider here: (1) the photos that you have shared are both labeled "Delos" so its not obvious what ... 
Analog upgrade
I would stick with your dealer. The services that a good dealer provides is as important as the equipment you buy from them. Personally I am a Clearaudio guy. Have been for the past 15 years and have never had the need to look elsewhere as far as ... 
Raise the Roof - Plant and Krauss
Bought the Vinyl......and of course everything sounds way better than any digital medium :-) now I have to digitize it so I can listen on the second system or in the car. Never understood why record companies do not include the CD in vinyl package... 
Equalization for vinyl nirvana
Let's tackle this question using a different analogy! If you go into an art gallery to view paintings the most important piece of equipment you need is a pair of glasses that is correct for your eyes so you can clearly see what the artist draw. No... 
Speaker Spike Philosophy
Before you go the very elaborate routes that you have planned and other suggested here (all of them very valid and with varying degree of expense and difficulty to achieve the end goal) may I suggest you try the appropriate size "PRIMACOUSTIC" Rec... 
Speaker cable length
I have exactly the setup that you are planning on. Keep the Left & Right the same length, it matters. That's just physics. Now people can argue they can't hear the difference but they are talking about their own hearing and not the laws of phy... 
Clearaudio Satisfy carbon tonearm front to back movement.
@mijostyn........the movement is very slight.....my guess would be 1/4 to 1/2 mm. 
Off center (not bent!) stylus?
Putting all the issues regarding vinyl playback and the role of the cartridge and how various parts of it (cantilever, stylus) work aside, why would anyone want to buy something that obviously looks so wrong and then ask the question "is this Ok? ... 
turntable recommendations
You have a fine turntable & cartridge so you need to be carful about selecting equipment that would be significantly better than what you have and not just sound different. My recommendation based on actual experience would be Clearaudio Perfo... 
Speaker upgrade around 100k retail
If your budget is around $100K why are you asking us and not your dealer to demonstrate the virtues of alternatives to Utopia III?If you were buying $100K car would you ask a forum or would you arrange test drives !!! 
Trying to find an amp that matches my tastes (aka death metal)
Non of the gear in your system has a way of knowing what music you are playing, only you know ! Given that if you go for the warm side of neutral then you will be robbing some of the feeling of Death Metal, it will sound rather boring, exactly opp... 
What a sad world we now live in.......
My CD player in my car broke down a few months back. The dealer wanted $2000 to replace it (!!). its an older Bose system that for the car sounds very good. It also has a Cassette player, remember those?!So i went to my basement found a couple of ... 
Why do cartridge manufacturers give a range for VTF?
Lyra Delos also has a VTF range; it's 1.7g - 1.8g with 1.75g being recommended. All that means is that they want you to start at 1.75g and move on from there. This is no different than any other manufacturer
