"All-in-one box system" that is High End

I am looking for a system to turn on every day when I come home from work, but does not require long warm-up. My main system is preamp with separate power supply, my amps are tube mono blocks. When I play I sit in one position,don't move and concentrate. This should be the walk-around system. I am looking for something that sounds 90 % of my high-end system. I have seen a lot of postive reviews on Linn Classik. Can I live with the basic (inexpensive system) or should I forget about all in one package?

DC: Find a beautiful, restored and nice sounding Art Deco table radio (tube of course) and forget about the 90% (just invest in a good antenna). My "quick" system for many years was a KLH Model 21 radio (early 60's), tuned to the local jazz or classical station. It was not tube or beautiful or Deco (though I wish that it had been), but it sure sounded good when I did not want to be bothered with the other setup, plus I never got nuts about tweaking it (it was just a radio). It was also a chick magnet (much more so than the big rig). There's just something about monorial music coming out of a nice sounding vintage radio.
