Magico A3 vs S3 MKI
@vinoacoustics...…………..oops, you are right.  I was thinking of the Q3, my bad. 
Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K)
@bo1972...…………………."Will you continue audio without a real foundation......."Will you please go away and not bother us with your long winded dribble in 2019? 
Favorite band or artist of all time?
Pink Floyd 
Higher Efficiency Speakers
How about one of the Klipsch speakers? 
Magico A3 vs S3 MKI
I have never heard either of those two speakers but I would assume they both have the same house sound.  Only you can make that decision.  I do believe the A3 are a lot more money than the S3.  You would have to ask yourself if it is worth the ext... 
Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G
I’m not putting a $700.00 Mat on a 4K turntable!  I already put in an inquiry to an Oracle dealer on their mat which is in the $200.00 range. I am willing to bet that both of those mats will not be a night and day difference from the stock mat.  M... 
beginner seperate system
You could get a Prima Luna integrated, used.  I believe Uncle Kevvy has a couple of them listed on his web site. 
New Rega Planer 8 (P8) Turntable - Apheta 2 Cartridge Combo - Thoughts
I went through similar problems with my Prime and lost interest in vinyl for a while.  My wife kept questioning me as to why I wasn't playing records when I spent so much on the Prime and accessories.  Took me a year to make a decision to move on ... 
Rockport Atria or Focal Scala + Accuphase components ?
Since an in home demo with those larger sized speakers probably is taboo, could you schlepp that big Accuphase amp to where you are auditioning the speakers?  Is your Accuphase a Class A model?  I would think that either of those speakers would so...

@rabbitholedigger...…………………….If I had a much bigger room , instead of the GE T REFs, I would have a pair of the Legacy  Aerius with Wavelet.  I heard them at Audio Classics with my Mac amp driving them.   All I can say is breathless.

gene3x...……………..With those Power Guard lights flashing, that amp is putting out somewhere around 750-800 watts RMS as the MC501 has 2DB of headroom.  I am surprised you didn't blow your eardrums out.  I run an MC152 with GE Triton Ref speakers and... 
Why don't all phono preamps include a rumble filter?
@dwette...……………………Agreed, but sometimes it is the ONLY option after all else fails. 
Creative pebble speakers emitting a dog whistle like noise
Merely speculation but it sounds reasonable for a $22.00 set of speakers.  
Rogue audio amp thoughts
@aberyclark .........When I had my RP5 and spoke to Rogue, I was told the Stereo100 and RP5 was a match made in Heaven.  I bet it will sound amazing.  
Why don't all phono preamps include a rumble filter?
I had 3 different  VPI turntables, a HW19 MK4, Scout And Prime.  All 3 of them neccistated a KAB Rumble filter.  Like yourself, I couldn’t move the turntable from its position. I tried everything I could think of, 4 different types of platforms, d...
