What's it worth?
Have you decided to sell the Luxman? Price?  
room size question.
Harry Pearson's Rule of Thirds: Speakers 1/3 of the way into the room, you 2/3 of the way.              
Where did you buy your first audio gear?
PX in Nuremberg. 1962. Bought a Thorens TD124 turntable for $72.  
Speaker cable
More audiophile nonsense   .  
Best XLRs under $500 a pair
Kimber Kable Hero.  
SoundSmith cartridges how good?
I have had a number of cartridges rebuilt by Peter. Always excellent service and a great result.  
Best Speakers You Have Ever Heard In Your Home
Quad 57s and 63s. 
Recommendation for a replacement speaker cable
Kimber Kable 8TC. 
Why no interest in reel to reel if you're looking for the ultimate sound?
I have a entire collection of Barcklay-Crocker tapes that I play on a Pioneer RT 909 RTR. Nice sound. 
Power Amplifiers
I use a Sumo Polaris Class A amp (I know, they don't exist but mine does) with a Berning TF-10 preamp. Also use a Quad 909 power amp, Krell KSA150, Sumo Andromeda, Berning AE230, and Adcom 550's for subwoofers. Much too much stuff! 
Inherited vintage equipment please help!
Berning amp $800-$1,000.
