Need advice on upgrade path


I have been set on an unexpected need to upgrade after an unfortunate feline induced short circuit. Apparently my cat took offense to my Plinius 8200 and used it instead of the litter box. lucky the house didn't burn down!
My remaining system is: 

  • Technics SL 1700 w/ Nagaoka MP110 and Cambidge Audio 640p phono preamp.
  •  Bluesound Node 2i and Schiit Modi mulitbit dac, 
  • NAD 2100 amp
  • Vandersteen 3A speakers and SVS SB 1000 subwoofer.

 I mostly listen to streaming digital with Spotify and Tidal hi fi and the rest to LPs. I think I would like to go the separate route. Have been considering: Schiit Freya+ preamp and Schiit Vidar amp, or Conrad Johnson PV 10A preamp and CJ MF2275 amp. Can anyone help with this choice of new vs vintage equipment in terms of sound quality and reliability? Also, are there better options to consider for the preamp and amp new or used that outperform my choices and have better synergy with my speakers? Are my amp choices powerful enough to properly drive my speakers? And before you all say it, I am keeping my eye out for an upgrade to 3A sigs.

In my opinion, I think new vs vintage is really about the sound.  I believe there is such competition for strong high end equipment you can get great value for the dollar either new or used if its truly all about the sound.

I'd focus on the source items, go to the preamp then amp (and consider an integrated) then look at speakers in that order.
Peed on the inside of the Plinius?
 Or the side?

 Speechless. 
WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE GOOD DOGGIES. 
Had the amp price checked for a repair? Or not worth it?
  Rest of your gear is great!
 Get a repair quote, and keep checking the Gon for a good deal.

 I feel for you, no animal peed on my amps, I had an incident with an old onkyo m504, 2 pairs of C vegas, melted the right binding posts, to the point of they were literally liquid plastic, out of warranty, etc, 

 I moved on, but I can’t compare an Onkyo to a top tier plinius. 
The CJ is a great amp!

 Look used first, I did,and found my amp. 
Sorry to hear that!
im sure many of us feel your pain when a great amp is ruined.   

 
Take a look at the Raven Audio Website.  They have a variety of options that meet any budget.   Call Dave Thomson, one of the owners.  He has a wealth of knowledge.  Great integrated tube amps.  I owned the one and powered Sonus Faber speakers.
