Killer used integrated for <$500?
Krell kav 300. It’s slightly more than $500 but definitely has a typical sound signature of Krell. It looks good too.

Listening to a young Russian violinist Daniel Lozakovich playing Tchaikovsky album "None but the lonely heart" and Bach partitia 2 (both on tidal)He plays like a true Russian, with beautiful melancholy and depth. I think he’s on track to be a supe...

what's your budget?  
sonus faber strad power amp suggestions
Audio research tube amp, ARC Ref 75 would be amazing.Krell KAV is meant for home theater, thus (KAV ) Krell Audio Video. Strads deserve good amplification.

Are there any good stereo recordings on Vinyl by Sofronitsky ? looking on eBay there are quite a few but not sure if they're mono or stereo. Are there any specific LPs that you'd consider as must have? I see most of Sofronitisy is recorded on Melo... 
JBL 4349 or Klipsch Cornwall IV
I heard Cornwall with a few tube amps, most memorable of them Luxman MQ-300 with only 8W per channel, but I doubt I even used 1 watt, as Cornwall’s sensitivity is 102db, which means at 1 watt you’re at 102db, which is quite loud. Cornwall excels a...

I had the fortune of attending Buniatishvili’s Schubert concert about two years ago and can say her playing is very consistent with this recording. She is indeed creative with a magical and soft touch, yet powerful at the same time. I agree with r... 
tube magic with digital source?
Agree with tomcy6, however, I believe that simply introducing a tube amp will improve the sound regardless.. Granted, it has to match the speakers well. And of course everything else matters if you're looking for perfection.  
tube magic with digital source?
I'm using a cheap blue sound node with a Mastersound 845 SET. It sounds magical. I just bought an aurender A100 and hope it will improve the sound, though I can't imagine my set up sounding better.  
LS50 and Classical
LS50 won't sound good with classical no matter what you do. If you must stay with stand mounts you'll have to add a sub. But I'd definitely get rid of LS50 and replace with Harbeth or Sonus Faber. Alternatively, Focal micro utopia will sound much ... 
tube magic with digital source?
Millercarbon, are you saying that there is no difference in Tube vs SS if you're listening to digital source? Maybe I misunderstand your reply butmy experience is completely opposite. I routinely use a digital source in both SS and Tube amplificat... 
JBL 4349 or Klipsch Cornwall IV
I’ve heard both and my impression was Cornwall was hands down a better speaker. One caveat, you need a tube amp to make it sound its best. I heard them with a low powered SET and was blown away. They’re very smooth, dynamic, great at low volume, l...
