Turntable suggestion -- budget.. or not?
Try a Nagoka MP-150 or MP-200 Cart on a Rega. 
Zen Crescendo or 5a...will they work in my room?
I've been listening to speakers for 50 years and would rather have a pair of AZ Crescendo than any other . 
Preamp with Tone Control Recommendations ....
A modded Dynaco PAS 3 might surprise you assuming taking out tone controls wasn't part of the mod . 
Bi-wire speaker cables be used as single set
I had a friend who used to put condoms on the unused connectors, seemed to work. 
NHT 3.3's vs KEF Reference 203 ?
3.3 was a great design with average drivers, a step-down from KEF unless sheer volume is your goal.You have to go a long way to better 203.1's on acoustic music. 
question about jolida amps
I think they are poorly made. 
Pioneer PL-71 cartridge upgrade question
I agree with Tbrogard, a 2M Blue would be about right for this arm.If you listen to classical music a Nagoka MP-150 would be killer. 
Redbook & SACD value
I'm very satisfied with my Arcam CD37. 
Mapleshade Double Helix spker cable: Rating??
IMHO sound lean on everything .

I think better. 
Good value for money speaker cables around $200
Gbb. I guess I would get Precision if I wasn't planing on changing speakers any time soon.I own both types , never heard much difference but my ears are elderly like the rest of me. 
Class D and Power Cables
Yes Indeed! I just bought a 6 ft pr of Cullen Crossover PC's.Never heard my tube amp sound so good. music comes from a "black" dead quite background right out of the box.Better than my Pangea 9, Zu, Harmonic Tech 11's, Acoustic Zen Tsunami and MAC... 
Monitor speaker recommendations
Silverlines will beat any speaker mentioned so far.
