Sorry, your budget was mentioned. 
A Great Vintage Integrated?
I'm not familiar with your speakers, but it appears as though they are not fussy in their requirements. Your sources have a somewhat different sound signature. I would keep that in mind. Your room and ultimate desired volume will also be a conside...

Once again, well done Sean. Thanks. 
Television as source component
Years ago I bought the first Hi-Fi VHS VCR. It was a tank, but went through 3 loading mechanisms. Shortly there after stereo TV came to be. To keep up with the latest technology I bought a Recoton outboard stereo TV decoder. Everyone who heard it ...

Best live album you've ever heard?

Best live album you've ever heard?

B&K ST-202 or Forte 1A?
