    All of your posts seem to be strangely vague or open to interpretation.  They're all a quarter-thought away from making sense. 
     
    I'm not sure whether you are a real person trying to convey an idea, or if you are some sort of bot stringing together associated words into sentence form.

    who wants to play a game?
     
    step 1) Pick up the RSD - Deja Entendu along with all your other RSD loot.
    step 2) tally up the total cost of all your RSD purchases
    step 3) Post Deja on ebay with a Buy It Now cost exactly equal to your total RSD purchase.
    step 4) Whomever covers the largest RSD purchase by flipping their copy of Deja Entendu WINS!

    I think you mean VTA and that table doesn't have VTA adjustment.  In any case, I don't think it will matter to you.

    there should be metal pieces that connect the black/black and red/red terminals on those speakers.  put them back in, if you still have them.
     
    otherwise, cut a piece of your speaker cable to make a new one.

    by way of example, I spent almost exactly $2k on my current setup by watching pretty closely for good deals on newish/used gear

    Table - Marantz TT 15-S1 - $1k as a B-Stock item
    Amp - Marantz PM8004 - $500 used from a dealer on eBay.
    Speakers - Monitor Audio RX1s - $500 new on clearance.

    New/retail the above would have run me well over $3k
     
    The speakers/turntable were pretty low risk as I bought them from authorized dealers (Audio Advisor and Music Direct respectively)
     
    The amp was a bit of a gamble--good rule of thumb might be to consider going used (from a reputable source) if you're saving ~50% off the street price.

    might be a good idea to disclose the referral link angle up front. Some people get bent out of shape about that stuff.

    because stealing is awesome?
     
    if you're so broke that you have to resort to stealing cardboard from the post office to mail records, you need to examine your life.

    in order to reach the widest customer base, make sure you stock both kinds of music. Country AND Western.

    You said a preamp only brings the signal to line level.  For the purpose of education, I thought someone needed to be pedantic and explain the rest. As I suspected, some people did learn from it.
