Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

Does this seem like a reasonable system ?.

Hi, I'm not sure if this post belongs in this forum but it is SET based so I'll try anyway.
I'm selling my apartment and going up the country, consequently I've decided to set aside a few dollars ( $20000 ) to try and put together a long term and musically satisfying system.After a bit of research and factoring in my musical tastes ( Blues, Jazz and Classical ) I've come up with the following :
2nd hand Airtight ATM300b with WE tubes
Reference 3a's MM De Capo i
JL Audio 110 Subwoofer
Michell Gyrodec / SME 309 / Lyra Delos
Nagra Tube Phono
Ayre USB Dac
Mac Mini
Cardas cabling

I think this is a reasonably balanced set up, maybe the Nagra is a bit excessive and possibly I could live without the subwoofer, I don't know. I've based my decisions on reputation ( reviews, quality, etc ) and appearance ( shallow I know but I can't help myself ). Unfortunately there is bugger all chance of auditioning this system so I'm going on experience, gut instinct and research. Opinions anyone ?.

Cheers Duffman.
