Hello to all... Want to experiment with mono sound (undecided about CD or vinyl source - maybe both).

Looking for recomendations for a good vintage receiver or integrated amp, which has a mono switch and a phono preamp included:

Have one warmish sounding floor speaker - 3-way, 8 ohm; freq response 24hz-24khz, sensitivity 86db, bi-wireable; rec power 40-200 w/ch...

Budget under $1000; looking for plug & play (no kits)

Suggestions please ...

You have a single speaker.

I'm thinking buy a complete budget boom box type thing.  Get a budget LP player with 16/33/45/78 with a built in Phono stage. I'd try something like that before I'd go piece mealing a system together for under a thousand, WITH vinyl..  I think I could, but that would be real tough.. and an OK Mono system, too.

Your making a simple task hard.. think about that single speaker for a while... WHY?? Because you have it...  My question is do you want good music? or do you want to use that speaker? They may not be the same thing..

Happy hunting in any case..
