PASS and ZYX
The High Output Glider has 2.5mV and is a Moving Coil Cartridge made for MM Input. The PH3 with its 54dB is simply to sensitive for that, MM inputs are normally in the 35-40dB range. Buying a matching cartridge (for example Glider Medium, with 0.7... 
Nordost Valhalla Power Cords
I think, it is System depending, some Designs react more, some less. I listened to Nordost ODIN power cords and I heard no improvement (with Lamm Tube amps) which justified their pricing. 
POWER CORD FOR LAMM L2 REFERENCE PRE AMP ?
I tried a few but honestly, I made no religion out of it. At the end of day I went for a clean technical solution, Oyaide Tunami. Shielded, good quality wire inside and top connectors. I use them for all my Lamm gear. 
Turntable hum problem after demagnetizing
Also, this is a Benz made demagnetizer and I'm using a Benz cartridge ...They are made to increase cartridge sales :-)

mono cartridge vs stereo
In a way you will find always the same groups in discussions about that topic.Group oneThey use a Preamp with Mono button and that's it for them(Mainly they don't hear any differences in general imo)Group twoThey use Mono carts and they stay with ... 
Where should I go next? Where are my weak links?
Syntax, why is the Lamm better than the Steelhead?Believe me, deep in your heart, you don't want to know it really.... :-)

Record Cleaning Machine- Keith Monks or Loricraft?
Does the excellent build quality of Keith Monks RCMs apply to the current production models (ie post 2008) as compared to those made while he was still alive (ie before 2005)?I met Jonathan Monks 2 years ago at a Demo and he showed me the RCM. fr... 
Where should I go next? Where are my weak links?
Linn Linto is nothing special, replace the Frontend with a Manley Steelhead.Or better, with Lamm.And then I would think about a better Turntable, VPI isn't really serious. 
Tubes for Lamm LL2
I use 12AU7WA Sylvanias (or Amprex Holland) & 6922 Telefunken from 1970. But Mullards are also good Tubes for it. 
Record Cleaning Machine - Loricraft PRC-3 vs. 4?
... the merits of the current production Keith Monks Omni or Classic over Loricraft?The Loricraft is a cheap copy from the Monks. The Monks was and is a workhorse for professional users (Libraries, Radio Stations in the past ...) who wanted a reli...

Dynavector XV-1S ---is it overkill for my system?
Honestly, the 17D3 is overkill for your Heed Phono. The XV-1s is probably ok, because it is a very anaemic cartridge but when you want to go ahead, think about a better Phonostage. 
Need advice on new TT, arm and cartridge.
Why I prefer Basis to TW?Because I don't spend my time making 17 adjustments every time I want to listen to a record.
