Recommendations for Tube Amp Repair Tech in US?
I don't know where you live but if near St. Louis you should contact Zawwin on this forum. He runs a repair shop and I have been taking my gear there for 25 years. 
inexpensive cd player as gift
I have two different Toshiba models that I like. He could always add an outboard DAC later. 
How many pair of speakers do you own?
I think I have about 15 pairs that I have acquired over the years and about 10 pairs that I have built in the last few years during my DIY years. I have about 4 or 5 more brands that I want to experience before I start going the other direction. 
used equipment brick and mortars?
I have owned Mac for over 30 years and consider it one of my wisest purchases. Last year I bought another larger Mac amp from Audio Classics and am very pleased with it. Others have come and gone but I still have McIntosh. I enjoy the sound. 
Best preamps under $800
The Creek unit I use is simple and sounds great. It also has a remote control.
