Rega RB-300 tonearm with Incognito Rewire ?????
I added it to my RB600 ,Lauerman Imports, I don't know if they are still doing it as they are no longer the Rega importer. I had a RF hum in the system and the extra gound of the Incognito eliminated it. Also I felt that the bass tightened up a bi... 
Turntable problem
I would say if you could replace the stylus it is a MM cartridge. The muffled on the MC setting confirms it.Try using a standard aux input. The phono stage in you unit sounds like it is not matching up with the cart output.

Speakers For McIntosh?
I think ust about any speaker will sound good with McIntosh except McIntosh. They still haven't gotten that speaker thing down pat yet

I agree with jmcgrogan two ears two speakers. I have a Marantz DV8400 and it is OK with the multichannel stuff. But I feel 5 speakers playing all at once is a fun listening session. When I want to do serious listening it is always stereo. I want t... 
Preamp For McIntosh MC352
I have the MC352 and use it with a MX134 as well as a MC7205. I just read the reveiw in Home Theater on the C42 and it sounds like a great piece. I recommend the C42 so that in the future you can add theater sound if you desire. 
Salamander Video Racks
I just purchased a SVDO cabinet and am very impressed with design, build and flexability. The only way to go short of custom built. 
McIntosh MX 130 as a 2 channe preamp tuner
check audioclassics.com they have a lot of McIntosh they may have the 118. They also check everything out. They are a bunch of retired McIntosh employees.

McIntosh MX 130 as a 2 channe preamp tuner
It is overkill but the MX130 has a pure staero pass thru thet also gives you bass/treble control. I would say that if can't find a cheaper and smaller unit the MX130 would be great. I have had lost of McIntosh thru the years and it never disappoints
