I vote for Sheridan's and JJSS's systems as the best compilations.
If your were to assemble a vintage system ?
Let’s say you were going to put together a vintage system and your source was primarily vinyl. Your price limit is $1500. What would it be?
Make it as musical as possible. Super detail or thunderous bass isn’t going to be very high on the list. My first thought would be a 70’s Marantz receiver (50ish wpc is more than adequate) an 80’s AR table, and any iteration of a Vandersteen 2C that didn’t bust the budget.
Could easily also swap in a Pioneer SX750 instead of a Marantz.
Cartridge? Not sure- might actually go with something modern/current. AT or Nagaoka
