Thank you all very much.  Looks like I am buying the Dynavector. 
Dynavector DV20X2L Question
Thanks!  I had the original  20XL on my Scout and loved it.  I was unsure because of the 3D arm being lighter than the stock Scout arm.

Good for you and you certainly won't regret it.  Enjoy. 
Transparent Musicwave Super speaker cables, 12 ft length
If it were I, I would keep the Audioquest cables and sell the Transparent.  Myself being OCD would never have 2 different brands of speaker cables in the same system.  If you aren't OCD, then use the Transparent Cables.  They are many light years ... 
Just Ordered New Speakers
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
Goldenear Triton 1 vs Goldenear reference speakers.
Sandy from GE told me the speakers will arrive in their warehouse by July 10th at the latest 
Escteric UX-1
I am willing to bet if you send/bring it to one of their Authorized repair centers, they would miraculously find the part for it.  I have been told Teac/Esoteric does not like to sell to third parties.

french_fries....................................I listen to 95% rock and out of that 70% is Classic Rock. It all sounds fantastic on my system which certainly isn’t mid fi. Funny you mention CSN&Y, as I listened to Deja Vu on my VPI Prime Satu...

+1 for the Esoteric integrated.  Its a great deal.  You could also look at a Parasound Halo Integrated.  You should be able to pick up a used one for 1700-1800.00 or a new one for around 2200-2300.00.  I went from a Rogue Cronus Magnum 100wpc tube...
