Amp + Speakers for a 13 ft X 10 ft room


Hi!
I'm new to the world of hi-fi, and I'm looking for some advice.
I'd like to build a stereo setup in a small room (13 ft X 10 ft). Which 'amp-speakers' combos would you recommend for that room size? I would like to get non-fatiguing, dynamic sound with good bass and open soundstage, no harsh treble either. This is going to be my first setup, so the budget is pretty low (about $700-900 per component) as I suspect any moderately good setup would be enough for me at this point.
I guess it would be better to look for vintage gear considering my budget. Am I right?
My listening preferences focus mainly on 60-80s rock music (prog, blues, art, hard, folk, soft, pop, melodic,heavy metal,etc), 50-60s jazz, blues, singer-songwriters, some 80s pop, new wave, alternative, electronic.

Bradf,
I like your suggestions. The Tekton M Lores matched with the Grant Fidelity 300b is really a nice musical route and special in this price range. Definitely would take Freddy down a different pathway compared to the usual stuff at a very reasonable cost.Quality 300b tubes can always be placed later down the road.Something to seriously consider.This system would the foundation to really have the music sing and connect you to the emotion of music.
Regards,
