looking to build best vintage solid state system


In an attempt to save money I am looking to gain knowledge about the best system using equipment that is 7+ years old. I am a beginner so I am open to all the suggestions. Mostly listen to Jazz, bassa nova, folk, and latin.

I'm not sure 7 years old qualifies as vintage. IMHO you need to go back to the 80's for that. I've picked up some great deals on early 90's amplifiers . B&K M200 Sonota monoblocks are hard to beat for the $'s. I have Bedini 100.100 (late 80's, but updated by Bedini 3 years ago) and it's fantastic. Early 90's Conrad Johnson amps are also great. There are some great preamps available the too - as long as you don't want remote control. I would stick to new for digital sources though - or at least 2000+.
