GAT versus ET-5 Conrad Johnson preamps
Sorry emergingsoul, just saw you question now ... No, I decided to stay with the ET-5  
Hana Umami Red or Lyra Kleos?
I have both, Hana Umami Red and Lyra Kleos, and both are fantastic! Lyra Kleos a little bit more open in the high frequencies, and Hana Umami Red a little bit more forgiven in not so good recordings

What Are The Differences Between The Vandenhul Cartridge Families
I've already had VdH MC-One, The Frog, The Frog Gold, and The Black Crimson (polycarbonate body). They all are fantastic cartridges, but the Crimson is much better, has a very dynamic and open sound in all frequencies, but a little bit aggressive ... 
PS Audio PowerPlant P20 better than pure direct AC I get during the night?
I moved from P10 to P20 two months ago, and the sound quality got worse … Some people told me it needs to burn-in. Any thoughts?

GAT versus ET-5 Conrad Johnson preamps
Thanks  jjss49! 
Luxam C-900u
I had the chance to compare Conrad Johnson ET-5 to Luxman C-900u, and I prefer CJ ET-5. Softer, warmer, more derailed and relaxing sound. 
Sumiko Starling cartridge
Thanks! 
Hana Humami Red cartridge
Thanks for your feedbacks!

wspohn335 ... which other cartridges you would suggest as better that Koetsu black?  
Absolute Monster SAM Turntable
hdcls3 ... I'm very very happy with my SAM Gold Reference Monster table! It's a fantastic table, with a very good price! I don't like, however,  their arm, so I'm using two Kuzma 313 arms on this table, and the match is fantastic!  
Upgrade? Luxman M-900u and C-900u from Pass X250.8 - Simaudio Evolution P-8
Has anyone compared Luxman C900 to Conrad Johnson ET-5 preamp? I use a CJ ET-5 preamp with a pair of Luxman M900u, an excellent match, but I wonder if a Luxman C900 wouldn´t be a better match ...

Has anyone compared the Katema with B&W speakers? Either 802D2 or 80D2
