Bought some `Vintage Gear`
The rarest tube amps I have are the pair of Futterman H3AA's, along with the Harvard Music Futterman H3 stereo OTL.

@pawlowski6132 : Right now at this moment I am listening to All Night Jazz (89.7 FM, WUSF Tampa) through a Mitsubishi (aka Diatone) DA-F10 tuner. Preamp is an RGR 4 and amp is a GAS Son of Ampzilla. Speakers are late-production DCM Time Windows (5... 
Considering switching to Tubes
A nicely restored pair of Dyna MkIII's is an easy recommendation for those B&W 805's! A true Golden Age David Hafler design! I have a pair (modded by Paoli - a favorite of Harry Pearson's).  
JBL 4350's
Try listing them here on Audiogon. Specify "pickup only" - to save the hassle of packing/shipping such a heavy pair of speakers. Central VA is close enough to DC - and Atlanta, that your listing will likely attract audiophiles in those areas! Vint... 
SME release new Garrard 301
Way too expensive!

I'd take those JBL's any day over Magneplanar's! 
Distortions that the human ear likes. Are there any ?
Watson, come here quick! What is it, Sherlock? I have found a way to add more phlogiston to wires! Listen! Quite an improvement, I dare say! 
Tube Amps Watts vs SS amp
A pair of those big 600 watt ARC mono amps would be great with the AR9's - but at what cost!  
Tube Amps Watts vs SS amp
@browndt: "No solid state amp can equal the sound of tubes ..." NONSENSE! I'm sure that Nelson Pass would agree with me that either type of device is capable of accurate reproduction of a musical waveform!  
Tube Amps Watts vs SS amp
@mijostyn : The Heresy's date from 1957 (same as Quad's). I think they sound even better with my First Watt F5 (25wpc). Still, for dinosaurs they are certainly capable of rocking out - try a nice vinyl copy of the Stones Let It Bleed! 
Looking for speakers for my 4W SET amp
Omega’s! LOL! 
Looking for speakers for my 4W SET amp
Get a used pair of Klipsch Heresy's - Mk1 or Mk2! They can often be found on EBay for about $400 - $500 + shipping. Sensitivity of about 99 db! That's where I bought my pair. My SET amp is a Sanei 560A with 2A3 tubes and all Tango iron, made in Ja... 
Old German turntable
Check EBay for comparative prices! Do not over pay! My $20 GW purchase was just one of those lucky finds - like the time I walked in and bought a pair of Klipsch Heresy's for $25! 
Old German turntable
There are several on EBAY right now! Buy one in the best condition, of course! 
Does anyone play two pairs of speakers at the same time?
What a stupid idea to use two dissimilar speakers together at the same time! Goodbye coherence!
