Budget speaker cable for my Usher S-520
Canare 4S11. I replaced some very expensive cables in my he-man rig with these and couldn't be happier. Retails for about $1.50 a feet unterminated and is very easy to terminate yourself or some places sell it predone for not a whole lot more.

Best value turntable under 1k
Rega is closing out their P5 model. Most places are selling these new for $995. Excellent table and arm and a great price! 
Can a rogue audio Cronus be used just as a preamp?
I just looked at the owner's manual for the Cronus and it shows 2 sets of RCA outputs. 1 fixed and 1 varible, so yes you can use this as a preamp. Use the varible outputs so that the volume control works. 
Power amps for King II speakers
Pass Labs XA60.5 or the XA100.5 would be my choice. 
Gong to some lp's
The ARC REF 3 does NOT have a phono stage. Excellent preamp, but no internal phono board. 
Audio Technica AT150MLX finally gets some respect
My Audio Technica AT150MLX has remained in my stable for quite awhile now. I am always selling off other cartridges, but just move the 150MLX from table to table. EXCELLENT cartridge!!!

Tube DAC Conundrum
I agree with Mrtennis. I have owned lots and lots of tube gear and always turn them off after a listening session. My solid state gear is left on.
