Should I trust movers with my equipment?
Sometimes you have to....carefully pack what you can in the shipping boxes that you got them in...buy new ones if you didn't save them......hand carry your cartridge/arm/turntable separately  
Replacement power cord, Hafler 9180
Home Depot has them 
Time to upgrade my turntable?
1000 dollars will not get you to where you want to be.  Save your money.  Very little if any improvement for your budget. 
Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend!
It seems to me that turntables must be level to even begin setting them up.   ...just wondering if springs can accommodate that adjustment. 
Alternate screw down clamp for VPI Aries
I have a VPI weight (not screw).   I put 2 dimes under it with the heads facing the spindle (yes there is a difference) Big wide open soundstage. 
Casters to replace spikes
I have tried all kinds of things under my Vandersteens (although not the MillerCarbon suggested springs).   There is nothing remotely as good as the spikes that came with my speakers as I hear it. 
What Does Ayre Sound Like?
I have an all Ayre system......the sound is best when using the balanced configuration.  My preamp has 2 outputs....I use a dedicated headphone amp from one of those outputs.....the sound is better when not simultaneously connected.  Unplug the on... 
THE IRS HAS TAKEN MY TRANSACTIONS VIA PAYPAL AND IDENTIFIED THEM AS TAXABLE INCOME
It seems to me, you are a small business 
Who is ditching their shiny disc spinners?
I love my Ayre ....plays all silver discs, never a problem. 
Market for Bang & Olufsen in U.S
Why not beat all bushes 
Class D amps that are superior to all or most?
Go to Dagogo.com and look up Legacy Audio 1.V4.   A good review of the best over all. 
Stylus Wear Question
Lots of good information.   Thanks all. 
Stylus Wear Question
..about Soundsmith.   There is no doubt that he would do a great job....just wondering if I'd get back the same abilities as my Winfield. 
Stylus Wear Question
Thanks to both of you....Its an Ortofon Winfield.   When I checked Ortofon's website, it seems that they only have an offer to buy the old one toward a new model.   I'll look further to see if they can take a critical look at it.....thanks again. 
B&W speakers sounding very harsh?
I would guess only the 2 front speakers.   I have a 5.1 and never use it for music...only tv et al.
