Lacee,I used to drive Chevy Suburban, but now getting around with Toyota Camry. Camry in general is OK, however it will less-likely pull 25' Donzi on trailer. 
great 70s country lps...audophile grade
Ry Cooder 'Paris Texas' soundtrack,Ry Cooder 'Jazz'(more of bluegrass) 
Who does repair work on old Kenwood receivers?
Any local techie can do it.DIY is the best. Accurately go through all of the solder joints test with Cx tester capacitance of electrolytics and replace if necessary. 
Do not buy any Sonus Faber used
Why should Sumiko (the distributor) support the grey marketer's activities?Being able to save huge buying from overseas vs. overpaying buying from US distributor looks grey to me. 
It's all local now
The truth to say is that it's not that popular anymore. Indeed the rock consert season is very poor later years. ACDC used to bring large events to our towns so is Rolling Stones, Zeppelin... Who's there now? Is there anybody ...Out-there? 
Man in need of new music
To all newbies in classical I'd recommend visiting a live performance venue first. It'll kick larger interest in classical performances. 
how much power
Magfan, Rok2id,45 amps is peak current that has nothing to do with operating continuous collector voltage of amplifier.Continuous current would probably be in the range of 1...2 amps.What is necessary for amplifier to deliver the same power onto t... 
how much power
Rok2id, the amount of specified current isn't important. A stability to the certain load is. An amplifier that delivers 60W onto 4Ohms presumed to have sufficient current to drive 4Ohm speakers. 
Solid state warm up?
Thanks Raquel,That's what I meant about tube parameters. 
Rega P5 line level low output...
If you get Vk-3i(super!), you won't need Bellari at all. 
Lyra Skala installation
So far had 3 Lyras: Beta, Argo, Titan. Titan not realy belongs to my system since it worth more than my TT/arm together, but purchased at a steal price, keep it untouched up until upgrade to more expensive analogue probably similar to yours, not f... 
Need Phono Amplifier
2nd to Behringer PP400. For the money spent to the secondary or garage system it'll do OK job for high out cartridges.You can also joggle with Samson, Art productl lines that manufacture the similar to Behringer phono preamps. 
Rega P5 line level low output...
The problem is actually with Dennon receiver that has poor input dynamic characteristics and probably extreamly low input impedance. High line level output components may do much better job than even tube phonostage. I strongly suggest having for ... 
tube amp not turning on
check for pests inside chassis... yak 
how much power
Tls49,If the amp is rated for 6Ohms minimum, than it will not have enough current for 4 Ohm speaker. Not only the output power is jeopardised because of mismatched impedance and lack of current, but also the remaining power is jeopardised by heat....
