the poster below beat me

My internet connection failed as I sent a post, so he expressed the same thing I had sent, but which got lost.

Main issues are what music, how loud, how good at soft, and how low for bass. Focus on mid range excellence. Do you want FM or analog? Tubes or SS?

I put together a simple cheap system for my library (my old gear, see vintage under inmate systems for docw) and that thing runs rings around most people's main system for enjoyment. And I can cheaply improve it and all the stuff would run under $1500 easily.

Amps could be Jolida or Rotel or digital receivers and speakers could be a lot of them, incl. Infinity Primus or the B & W 805 clones on AgoN with a sub (Hsu or Parts Express). You can even have a TT for $2K. I assembled just such a system last week from current AgoN offerings, just to show my friend at work.
