Weird thread.... Here goes:
I have a vintage Marantz system from the 70's which, with tuner, amp, and my first set of hifi speakers is one of the most musical sounds in my house.. Cost= Peanuts
I have another system with brand new stereo subs, new maggies, newer class D monos, a streamer, a classic turntable, and a tube preamp . Sounds detailed and lovely with a decidedly hifi sound. Very enjoyable but very different than my vintage system. Cost= More than I should have spent.
