Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G
Atmasphere, you do not fasten the platter to the motor assembly on the 1200G? 
Heaviest Headshell?
the arche is pretty heavy 
Where's the love for my RP-10 and Apheta 2?
it is a great table that I think was designed to be a no fuss product without compromise.  It is meant for the user to stick with the Rega cartridges which are made for that table. 
Q for any Luxman L-509X owners

Current McIntosh mc275 Questions
you did not mention the mark IV.  I believe it is the best sounding MC275 other than earlier versions that I have heard. 
It's back!

Merlin with Pass XA 30.8?
The more I listen, I think I will keep my MC275. 
Whats the FATTEST sounding Tube amp to warm up Lean speakers?
In the case Of Merlins, they really like Cardas. Bobby really loved the Cardas Clear SE and Golden Reference both in interconnect and speaker cabling. Also, JPS labs Superconductor and Aluminata. 
An old Thorens TD125 MkII with SME 3009 or a Linn Sondek with Ittok ?
I recently heard a TD125 and was pretty floored.  I would say its pretty close to the Linn, the Linn may edge it out, but not by much. 
VPI Classic 3 or SME 20/2
I usually dial in the VTA with me eyes and ears.  Glad to hear your are enjoying your new table.
