Have I got the wrong amp? or the wrong speakers?
Vintage staff is not easy to rely on. I picked up 80s Marantz receiver ones hoping to setup secondary system at my tool room and with a couple of days the rec killed my Yamaha speakers however all of specs was matching. The speakers was relatively... 
Reccomend a good preamp for me.
ModWright Instruments is definitely staff to think about. If you want to go full truly balanced, the LS 36.5 is the way to go...  LS-100 is single ended but also has XLRs in and outs with bunch of RCAs...  Modwright is made in US... easy upgradabl... 
Are "vintage" DAC's worthwhile, or is this a tech that does not age well
It was noticeable improvement in SQ streaming Tidal when I switch to Dragonfly Cobalt from Dragonfly Black in my mobile setup.... so DACs sounds differently to me.

DACs sounds differently. Depends on chips used, codec, technology and resolution supported. DACs r different animals... DSD, MQA, tubed or R2R... all of them sounds differently and vintage too.  
Any good experience in discovering new music via TV or movie recently ?

TV? What the heck is that? Haven't watched TV in ages, and for good reason....it sucks. Matter of taste... some likes porky ribs, some likes watermelon and others could enjoy both.. poor people who goes narrow tunnels.  
Where does it end?
The harmony is hiding in balancing between things. Try to spend equally on things you like most. My recent dilemma was to buy a new MC cart or new bicycle. Considering that summer is coming and the fact that I already own 5 different carts, the bi...

You could be surprised how some people get in to the hobby and bring their money to it. I have dentist friend who lives in NYC, and his interests was extremely fair from music and good sound. He was a lot about a cars, travel etc. It was about 10 ... 
Why would anyone want class AB amp when class A always sounds better ?
Why would anyone want class AB amp when class A always sounds better ?The statement is just partially true. Some ears like class D over anything else... oh, and it’s genre related too 
Turntable matching to MC or MM cart.
If I decide to go MC low I will buy a SUT.Other words, you think that combo of MM phono stage with SUT is better choice than dedicated MC phono stage alone or you just like your MM stage a lot? 
Turntable matching to MC or MM cart.
Practically it’s subjective, we have different systems and you have no idea who is a person who will answer your question (and his/her experience with different tonearms/cartridges). Of course it’s subjective, I don’t try to reach some dogma or un...
