MMF 2.2 - Mod vs. New Turntable
I would just put a Sumiko Pearl cart on it and use a Nad PP1 or Rega-mini phono and be done with it. 
Who makes the highest quality tube amps?
At least that I can afford, Quicksilver.

What country still has music?
Most musical country I 've been in,and I've been in many, is Hungary. Opera and classical music concerts are SRO in Budapest.About dropped my dentures to see half the audience were young people.Even in smaller cities this was the case. 
Ohm Walsh 2000 vs MMG vs Vandersteen 2ce Sig?
Not so, MMG will put out good bass, you just need an amp that will put over 300 watts a side into 4 ohms, 500 is even better.I will give you Ohms are better on hard rock, but on REAL musis MMg will smoke them. 
Good sub $100 cartridge for Thorens TD 160
In Thorens arm, Pearl is very nice. 
Got Ears?
The obvious analogy is symphony conductors , many of the great ones continues into their eighties as good or better than ever, with MUCH diminished physical hearing for which the brain fully compensates. 
Magnepan MMG or something else
Oh, and use anti-cable jumpers with the Oval 12, MMG are very sensitive to jumpers, I tried many till I hit the magic combo. 
Matching speaker cables to Magnepan MMG's
Oh.also use anti-cable jumpers with Oval 12, unreal good. 
Ohm Walsh 2000 vs MMG vs Vandersteen 2ce Sig?
Ladavid, well Ohm's, ehich I've had, are sure plug and play,MMG's are not for the faint of heart. 
Anything better than 1.7 Maggies
LOse Rotel 
Magnepan 1.7 crossover capacitor improvement?
Seen several guys with same complaint cure it with Analysis Plus Oval 9 or 12 speaker cable. I thought Oval 12 OUTSTANDING with Maggys. 
Magnepan 1.7 owners and subwoofers
