Cart Reccomendation for P5 re: roomate idiocy
IMHO if you liked the sound of the Denon, you'll probably not like the Benz. Two totally different carts. The Benz is mellower and more laid back. The Denon and the AT 150MLX are snappier, quicker and more open. I really like my AT150ML.

Who at VPI did you talk to? I can't believe that Sheila or Matthew would leave you hanging. You might try to talk to one of them or even Harry.

AR XA Assembly Post shipping.
Usually the AR tables have a "lockdown" screw or bolt that locks the suspension down for shipping. You will need to remove this. Also the belt won't ride correctly until you put the platter on the subplatter to offset the weight/height difference ... 
Do amps sound better when left on for 30 minutes ?
