Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

Good speakers

Spend the time and money on a nice tube setup. You don't need big wattage if you are listening to classical. Tubes and classical just seem to be a perfect match.

My preferred classical is my Sherwood S-5000. Fully rebuilt by Mike Samra.

Example: A sherwood runs about $500 or so. And a full rebuild should run you about $500-600, depending on what needs to be done. After Mike finishs you will be VERYYYYYY happy. And it will last longer than you. I am a big fan of vintage SS. But honestly, most of that stuff is on it's last legs. And most likely will need constant attention in years to come.

But post freely on what's available and fits your needs. Take your time and look. Don't rush!!!! it will pay off in the end when you are sitting back and listening to your Sherwood, Eico, etc....
