I need a good arm to mate with a modified Lenco L75
@vpi Not clear above but which table is better? 
Happy with digital, but thinking about vinyl--looking for system specific recommendations
OP, this is an excellent table with great arm and will beat out all those Regas and MDF decks.https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis8ig47-gem-polytable-with-10-jelco-sa-750e-tonearm-new-turntables You could look at the Pioneer PLX 1000 --gets great... 
Newbie needs help on Audio Research and DynAudio Quality
They are pretty high resolution amps and you may just be hearing harsh digital recordings as they are. Assuming all is healthy (tubes and caps), look at speaker placement - try straight ahead and closer together rather than toed in with tweeters p...

20 year old amps spending 4 years sitting around waiting for the day of judgement? Leave them running for 24 hours and try again.  
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
I read your post and came to the same conclusion that seems apparent to everyone.  
New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000
Good for him, cashing in on the ever increasing number of rich folks who'd rather buy this than give their employees a pay raise. 
Phono (0.1- 0.22mV+) or step up for LOMC?
The EAR uses tubes for MM and step up transformers (SUT) internally for MC. The GNs use solid state which might be the way to go if you are good with no tubes. Dunno what MC you intend running but at this price level, you might be best served usin...

The least expensive option may not give you what you want. You could look out for a used vintage table like a Thorens 160 or up your budget to a Rega 3 etc. I have a few Croft amps including a 25R. I would strongly recommend swapping out the stock...

@vpi So ... the 301 or the VPI? 
Anyone hear a Croft Integrated Amp?
@zek4u My 25R is dedicated to phono only. It was always verboten back in the day to hang a cable on the tape out unless necessary. You might try it with/without late at night to see if it affects SQ.

I can see it now: a whole line of amps at all these different output points! Not necessary nor sensible. You need to double the power to achieve a 3dB increase in volume.

@lewm Indeed! The Apolyt alone is $300k.
