Woofer pumping WHY??
Mattmiller,I standby that the cartridge arm combo is not a good combination,and will wreak havoc. The sound is good because the problem is in the subsonic region that you will not hear. If you don't address this you will have the problem till the ... 
Woofer pumping WHY??
The tonearm mass is a low 8.5 grams ,the cartridge has a compliance of 15 (on the low side). That combination looks like a mismatch to me. You can try a headshell weight to add some mass to the arm and see if that improves the problem. 
Woofer pumping WHY??
A cartridge arm mismatch will cause that problem. The rule of thumb is low compliance cartridge, high mass arm and high compliance cartridge, low mass arm. You should get a test record like the Shure test record TTR 115 that can be gotten on Ebay ...

Why are so many people trying to sell Harbeths?
I never see that many used Harbeths listed. Like Reprince said,they are all dealer listings. I have owned many speakers over the years and my P3's are still my favorite!

Slow adaptation of KT150 by amp mmanufacturers
It looks like Tung-Sol is the only company that makes that tube. Plus it is alot more costly to retube. This could be the reason why! ???? 
best value current production tonearm
Check out the SME 309 or the less expensive M2-9. They are both medium mass ( 9.5 grams) and work great with a whole range of cartridges. BTW,I have the 309 and it betters the many arms that I have owned before. 
Phono preamp with two inputs: two MMs or MM+MC?
You would have to use a linestage preamp and use separate stand alone mm phono preamps into the aux inputs in the linstage preamp to do that. BTW,what is your phono preamp plugged into now?
