Cartridge and Microphone do the same thing!http://www.audio-technica.com/cms/site/b0d226992d31e25d/If you use a Stethoscope you will hear tapping on any arm you use!http://bestreviews.com/best-stethoscopes

I doubt that would change anything. If I tap on my SME arm I can hear a light sound. If you tap on the plinth and you don't hear anything then you should be fine!

Sub w/a CJ ET3 SE
Take a look at this SVS SB-1000. The owners manual will show you all the options for hooking up a sub. BTW,I think that the SB-1000 would be a good match with the 5T’s!https://www.svsound.com/products/sb-1000

It all depends on what subwoofer you are using. There are many different ways to hook up a sub to a system. More info would help! 
Best small used monitors under $1000
@celo I was thinkin’ the same thing. I have those speakers and have never seen them listed at a price that low. BTW,yesterday there was a rosewood pair listed at $1300 and they were sold in 2 hours!

There is a pair of Harbeth P3’s that is listed here for $1200. You should jump on them before someone else grabs them!

Any LS3/5A type of speaker. The Spendor 3/5 can be had for well under a grand!

@williewonka I have not heard one. But it looks like a real nice entry level table with some positive reviews. Another plus is it’s made in the USA !!
