Length of speaker cable effect bass response?
I have 22ft runs without any loss of bass. I use 12ga ccc Vampire Wire. 
Stereo reciever / integrated amp suggestions?

Vibrapod cones under a TT
I use Herbie's tall Tenderfeet under my vintage (and rather heavy) turntable. 
Are You a Sansui Lover?
I have the AU D-11 which has been re-capped and upgraded as the center of my 2-channel vinyl system. The phono stage is terrific and I can't see swapping it out for today's HI-FI sound. I'm a vintage guy with vintage tastes. 
Vintage Infinity speakers with emit tweeters....
"Q" series. Qb might be the bookshelf.
