Help me improve Rega P2
With a non suspended table vibration is the evil enemy. My Rega P9 has made a solid improvement by replacing the stock feet with Foculpods. Everything is more relaxed and cleaner, for about $30 the risk is nil. 
What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker?
Enobenetto-Your not alone there are many younger(<50) on Agon that respect heavy metal/hard rock. 
Joe Cocker...R.I.P.

Best "Rock/Pop" Debut Album?
Do you mean Gerry Rafferty? This helps prove how overlooked his songwriting is by the masses and even audiophiles! 
Advice - What turntable should I buy ???
It's not that difficult! A used Rega P7 for  
Rega owners
Wildoats-If your a DIY guy and don't mind vintage gear you have many options. If you want a new table the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon($399)appears to be the best value in new budget tables. I have not heard Carbon Debut but have heard other lower cost P... 
"Famous Blue Raincoat"..

What type of amplifier would you be using? The Sonus Faber Venere 3.0 would be my first choice regardless of my current amp. Was very impressed with its balanced and neutral sound. The 3.0 was being driving by a modest Integra(125w/ch)home theater... 
Accuphase E-460 vs Luxman 509u vs Moon 700i
Jriggy-You nailed it regarding Sim/Moon. I heard a Moon i5.3 driving a Focal 826v and the description "synthetic" is the exactly what I heard. Another demo with the Moon P-7/W-7 proved much better with a Vienna Acoustic(The Music) but an AVI S2000...
