"Spitting" Cartridge problem
Check the anti skate setting. If anti skate setting is too low, you will hear static in the right channel. Too high will give static in the left channel. 
Infinity RS 2.5 speaker placement
Wow. I actually owned a pair of those years ago. Great speaker in their day... I agree with Elizabeth. Start with them about four feet out from the front wall (wall behind the speakers).BTW, they are not a dipolar design. They are a bipolar design... 
Just got my Dv20X2 H had a question
There are some discussions over at AudioAsylum about Dynavectors with off center cantilevers. I had a similar problem with a DV20XH (the model just before the one you have). The dealer refered me to the distributor who exchanged it for another. So... 
SAE two t3u tuner....any thoughts?
I had some SAE components in the 70s. I agree with Stanwal. They looked better than they sounded. The SAE "Two" stuff was an attempt to bring the company back from the dead and was a price point offering IIRC. I'd pass. 
Vizio HDMI Cables
Best thing to do is try it. Only you can decide if its OK for you. 
Looking for the Honda S2000 of turntables
This should be right up your alley: Rega P3-24 table, Dynavector 10x5 cart, Dynavector P-75 mk2 phono pre. A popular combo that is tough to beat for the money.

JAN stands for Joint Army Navy. Tubes were taken from a standard production run and screened for closer tolerences. Only the tubes that met the military's requirements got the JAN desgination.

Pro-ject and EAR 834p - On the wrong path?
Why can't you run the Speed Box with the EAR? 
Anyone use the tweeter attenuation on Maggies?
Toe in will increase treble response at the listening position. Parallel to front wall will calm the treble a little. Also, try swapping speakers left to right so you can compare sound with tweeters "outside" vs "inside". It certainly won't hurt t... 
Anyone use the tweeter attenuation on Maggies?
How far out from the wall do you have them? They need at least 3ft preferably 4ft to balance the bass with the terble. 
krell ksa100 vs. audio research 150.2
Well, there's hundreds to choose from. Would need to know what preamp you intend to use, what kind of upgrade path you are looking for, your budget, and your system goals (ie: is there something in particular that you want to improve upon?).IMO th... 
krell ksa100 vs. audio research 150.2
Depending on preamp, my choice would be the KSA100. Its one of Krell's best ever. On the other hand, with satilite as a source both are overkill. 
Good Phono Stage for Benz Micro Ace.
Graham Slee Era Gold V works great with my Benz Ace HS. 
Info needed on McCormack ALD-1 preamp please
