Cartridge upgrade for SME 20/2A???
Lyra would be very good, Try the Skala if you can get it. The titan is good, pricy but good.Lyra Skala is amazing for the price. 
Which upgrades for my Rega Planar 3?
Look into the Graham ones, by the way what is your budget. 
I need some sound advice
another thing that you can try is the Ortofon Kontrapunkt B Cartridge. This one is sweet for the price, its about 1200 new. I personally prefer the Lyras, they are also amazing, but for your price check the Ortofon out.

I am going for the T+A SADV 1245 R HD. This does every thing. I am hoping that it will do a good job on Audio 2 channels. 
Transparent Speaker cable and interconnects
Yes T+A is amazing for the price they offer. I heard the ARCAM, Krell and a few others also but this stuff is amazing. JM labs Divas make an exceptional combo too with it. They out perform my B&W 800's. 
ARCAM compared to Krell
Thank you all. I changed my system to the T+A stuff. I got the ARCAM at first. T+A is amazing stuff

It has progressive scan as well as HDMI component. My TV just has DVI, so will have to get a converter. 
B&W or JM labs
I am using the T+A PA 1530 for Just 2 channels. I have the T+A DD1535 for the surround. I am using Transparent Ultra MM's for cables. In terms of power cables I have the Anaconda Helix Alpha for the PA 1530 and the Electraglide Epiphany X for the ...

My system is T+A intigrated amp, their digital decoder and the SADVD player. I am planning to buy the JM labs Diva Utopias and micro utopias. I like transparent Ultras, the configurations that I have made them more nuteral. Listening mostely soft ... 
B&W or JM labs
How do you compare the music in both. High, low and middle range. What about warmth and harmonics. If you cna please give me details of both the sides a little. 
ARCAM compared to Krell
I had the Krell TAS as the AMP in mind. I would stick with the ARCAM DV 29. I wanted to keep the AV 8 too but will move to the Krell HTS. I wanted to drive my HTM 1 and the 802's with some more power. B&W's require a lot of power. 
ARCAM compared to Krell
I would love to get a recommendation form you on which other can be used. I have not used the Krells but have read that they are good on sound but do not give that musch wormth. Please provide your input. 
ARCAM compared to Krell
The only Problem here is that I will have 5 B&W's, The 805's are very happy wiht this amp. I put in the HTM1 and the sound really went down as compared to the HTM2. Now I do not have the HTM 2 any more and because of that I am going up to the ... 
ARCAM compared to Krell
The P7 is just 125 watts per channel. I am thinking of buying the B&W 802's and the 125 watts will not be ablw to drive them. I totally love the ARCAM stuff the musice is extraordinay and very worm, even the krell monoblocks cant give this muc... 
Shunyata Hydera 8 or Richard Gray 1200 S custom??
I have the Arcam AV8 as processor and P7 as AMP.
