Cartridge suggestions for...
In from left field.....the AT Art 1000 is one hell of a cartridge for the $. I have one standing in for a Lyra Etna SL while off for a rebuild. I will probably leave the Art in place until it wears out..... 
Marten speakers
@kenjit- actually, they are not accuton's but thanks for your insight 
Marten speakers
Thanks for the replies so far...Placement restrictions are a main priority-  cannot have them in the middle of my room. My gut says that the passive radiators should not pose too much of a problem but of course cannot confirm this without a home d... 
Anything SS sounds better than D'Agostino ?
Tidal Audio.... 
High end Class D amps?
Tidal Audio, unquestionably a leader in high end amplifier design, has announced their new amplifier. It appears to be Class D.  
Luxman E-250 or Sutherland 20/20, or something else?
MusicDirect is distributing Whest phono stages...they have a fairly liberal return policy. Read some of the Buyer feedback on the Whest Audio web sight - there are a lot of them. This should , at the very least, raise your interest in giving one a...

An audio rack that really does make a difference.
Artesania Audio racks- thoughtfully engineered and beautifully finished.

Tron Convergence is tough to beat at this price point but does not give you the flexibility to change loading values. If that is not an issue for you, then a worthy audition for sure. 
Help with Phono preamp suggestions!
I owned a Vida as well....a bit more "vanilla" when compared to a Whest 30 RDT SE for example. The Vida does not have loading options either- only High and Low. I don't want to come off as a Whest fanboy here, but they are really good phono stages...

How do you like the Art 1000? 
Help with Phono preamp suggestions!
I'm a big fan of Whest phono stages- I have owned three. Currently use a MC Ref V on my main deck. Never tried a Hana cartridge with Whest but you could drop Jim Henriot an email via his website to confirm that it would be a good match or not. Whe... 
Phono stage recommendations
I like Whest stages. I have had three and currently sit with the MC Ref V. It is the best phono stage I have heard in my system ( Vitus SIA 030, Dohmann Helix 2, Schroeder CB, Lyra Etna SL). I also have an Allnic H-7000 that I run with my LP 12. W... 
Which amp to pair- Proac Tablette 10 speakers
Naim Supernait integrated would be great. Mk1 should be available SH at near your price point...Small Proac really wake up with a amp that can deliver plenty of current during dynamic swings
