McIntosh LB200?
Makes this at $1800 seem like a real bargain.  
WTH TAS?!
It's called Learning from Audio History. If you viewed a podcast on the Second World War, and the guy presenting it said he thought it started in '38, '39, or perhaps '40, how would you feel?

Nimbus is the name of the label I was trying to remember.  You should search out some of their CDs.  
Best turntable for the buck
This store always seems to have stock when others don't. https://valueelectronics.com/product/technics-sl-1200g/  
The review wehave been promising is up
I wonder what the accommodation price was.

I hope @aquint sees this. Great job @bdp24!

Upscale offers the Feickert Volare with Origin Live tonearm and Ultratracker cartridge installed for a package price of 4.3k. Surely something like that would work.

You might also want to look into binaural recordings.  Google explains it better than I can.  There was a British classical label that took it up big time years ago, but it went defunct.  Perhaps someone else will remember their name.  
Competitive class D amp suggestions
@niodari The first harmonic is the fundamental frequency of the note itself.  So that's the big spike to the far left.  Thus the other harmonics begin with the second. The reason why the same note/frequency played on a violin and a clarinet sound... 
Definitely a good listen
Still trying to understand that massive leap from the 700 at $2700 to the 1000 at $9500.

BlueSound PowerNode. 2nd and 3rd harmonics pretty much same level.  
Congratulations Atmasphere!
With all your tube experience a hybrid integrated would be very cool.  
Full range speaker recommendation
If new, Spendor Classic 2/3.  If you look for gently used, you could step up to the Spendor Classic 1/2.
