A difficult LP reproduction question
What cartridge are you considering? I have seen some special 78 version of the Denon DL103 at Phonophono.de for around 200.- Euro (the DL103/78, http://www.phonophono.de/english/html/denon_details_1.html). Might be something worth looking at.... 
Please help an aging, music deprived mom
For the amp I would go with a Linn Majik (about $500 on Audiogon) or Classik, which should fit really well with the Linn speakers. Creek would not be bad either. Im not sure wether the speakers will be an easy load for a tube amp. The Classik of c... 
rega new tables p5 p7
Wait until you here the new Rega with the new upgrade power supply. This one will make your records spin even faster. What about listening to your vinyl at 35rpm.... 
rega new tables p5 p7
I just saw the news on the Rega website as well. Certainly looks interesting, only problem so far is that the P25 with its wooden surround looks about 100 times better than the new ones. The other problem is that new tonearm seems to have the base... 
What's under your bookshelf speakers?
I would recommend Blu-Tak as well if you are using speaker stands. Works like glue but does not leave any marks. Also since this is not really damping material, there should be no smearing of the Mid and Bass definition. And spikes are probably go... 
Looking for a cd player with analog or digital vol
Just remembered. There's the Quad CDP99 that has variable outputs as well. That one is supposed to have decent outputs as well. Gene Rubin seems to be a good dealer, who recommend the CDP99 with 99 poweramp as CD-amp combination. Might be worth lo... 
Looking for a cd player with analog or digital vol
A Linn Genki with two variable outputs can be had below $1000. Not as good as a separate good Preamplifier (e.g. Wakonda, but actually better than Kolektor, see other posts on Audiogon about this topic). The Genki is a very good reliable player fo... 
P2 or P3
I guess the main difference in that configuration would be the difference in the Rega tonearms. There was a fairly detailed review and comparison of the Rega line of tonearms in last months Hifi+ (February issue). This month there's a review of th... 
Cartridge & phono preamp for Denon DP-60L
The Denon DL 103 and the Lehmann should be a good combination. 
Is denon 103 cartridge match with SME V?
The slighty lower mass of the SMW V should not matter too much. The regular DL103 runs great in a medium mass Rega RB300 as well. A lot of people in Europe love that combination. I actually have a DL103 mounted on my P3/RB300 and it works great. C...
