Garrard 301: Where to lubricate?
Apply a few drops into the oil fill hole at the top of the bearing. You can use any light machine oil or sewing machine oil as long as there are no detergents in it as they can gum up the sintered bronze bushings. 
MM Cartridge Recommendation
Nagaoka MP500 or Audio Technica VM760ML are both fast and articulate, and slightly warmer than the Black so you won’t lose too much detail and air. Either will sound more full bodied and musical with the AT the more "neutral" of the pair. 
60 Hz Hum from Powered Sub
nob and tubeKnob and tube. Cost me a fortune to replace after some flood damage. 
Buying from Parts Connexion
Definitive Audio UK are £2000 ,roughly $2760 usd$1600 a pair in PartsConnexion. Sounds like it might be worth the 23% VAT and fees to import. You might call PC to see if they'll double box them.

You know the saying if no prices are listed........@jond  You are about to be ripped off with white-gloved hands. 
PrimaLuna Evo 200 underwhelming
New cheap Tung Sol 7581A are excellent replacements for EL34s. Clear and transparent with great bass. The vintage Tannoy Mercury speakers were very warm and creamy so other speakers should brighten things up.

You will pay tax in the UK on imports. There will possibly be a delay in delivery time. I have sent items to the UK from the US for repair and they got held in UK customs where I was charged VAT and a fee for processing!

+1 @grannyring It's the world we live in. The OP was incendiary from the get-go. There is a "Report this" flag function.

Manley Chinook to Aesthetix Rhea Signature?
I’ve heard the Zesto with a Merrill-Williams REAL table and it’s very good.Look at the Modwright 9X with built in SUT. Both @tomic601 and I run Croft RS phono amps, which, with a set of Telefunkens punch well above their price point. Again, you’d ...

@bkeske Telefunken’s are just dead quiet. Hard to believe they can not make newer tubes ‘in mass’ with the same properties.For me, the next step up from the Teles are Grant Fidelity’s Shuguang black 12AX7LS. Silent and even better in every respect...
