Phonostage: Naim Superline vs 47 Labs phonocube
True, with hicap the superline is twice the uphorik, but not twice the sq. but if I remember the review correctly, didn't they use the supercap, which would make it 3 times the uphorik? Then I'd probably definitely go superline, knowing what a fan... 
How will you split $3000 between phono and cart ?
But photon46 isnt the RCM much more expensive (somewhere around $3k) ? I have heard the RCM in an Avid + ZYX setup and liked it quite a lot. I am considering it pretty seriously now. It has great drive and timing, very airy and clean as well. Tona...

SME 3012 S2 + DL103Pro = thin sound ????
Thanks Blk25. Is SME3012-S2 a good match for DL103 ? 
Turntable under $1500 ..... Rega, clearaudio, or ?
Technics SL1200, once and for all. 
ASI Liveline...Burn-In Experience
More than taste I think it is system dependant. I cant think we both would define "natural" sound in so vastly opposing manner. Its the system !! 
ASI Liveline...Burn-In Experience
ASI was sold long back. I tried it for about 200 hours and finally could not take the extra edge and somewhat artificially boosted high frequency shine of the cable. My final impressions remain pretty much the same as mentioned in the beginning of... 
New cables, help
Crimson Musiclink cables are some of the best around. It has all the qualities you are looking for and much more. Practically it sounds like there is no cable at all and it costs peanuts for the way it performs. 
I have a AC Regenerator. Get dedicated line too?

Good cartridge match for SME R3012 tone arm?
Dekay, are you talking about the Bronze bearing or Bronze base plate ? 
Can I upgrade my IC cable for $100?
I had the DH Labs BL-1 in my system long time back. The Anti-Cables are far far superior to them. Try them you will love it.
