Advice on best mid priced MM cartridge choice for Rega P3 (2016)
I used a Denon Dl-110 on the same table, sounded great. People seemed to like the Nagaoka better though.

You do have options. Fidelis in Nasuha, NH & Goodwins inWaltham. Doesn't get much better that them two.  
Polk Audio LSi15(used) vs Polk Audio RTi7 (new)
I've always read it's best to match your fronts with your center.So I don't think the LSis would be a good match.I would do some research on how important it is to match frontswith center before deciding.

I think the LFD LE phono stage is 53db not 63db. 
Sonus Faber Olympica 3 or Olympica Nova 2 ?
Fidelis in NH carries SF.

Thanks, that's what I thought but I read I would hear it when music was playing also. I replaced the stock tubes with some NOS ones right after I bought it.I'll try that. I'll have to do it at the end of the week. I'll try the stock ones also.

Integrated to go with KEF LS50
I use a Plinius 9100 with great results. I also listen to King Crimson. I also had a Marantz, a SA-8001 but now use aOPPO 103 so I can listen to DVD-A & Hi Rez off a USB stick. 
Speaker cables for Kef LS50....
Yes, I am still using them. I can't really fault them, they sound great to me. I used the Clear Day Shotgun when I first bought the LS50s & they seemed bright, to be fair it could have been because the Kefs were new.

Best cartridge to reduce hum under $400 USD
