Electronics for Harbeth, Especially Monitor 40 series
I spent quite a bit of time in the Harbeth room at the last Newport show. They were driving the 40.2's with Naim electronics. Very natural sound. Organic and emotionally involving, just as Harbeth always is.

I need advice.
Garywest ...I love that turntable .. very musical. You're a music lover first and not an equipment geek. Keep the Sansui as a spare and go with tubes.  It doesn't have to be really expensive. Check out the modified Dyna 70's. Maybe a modified Dyna... 
Happiness achieved
Nice system. Now collect tons of music and listen to the music and not the system. See ya at the garage sales and thrift stores. *lol*
