Right away, I'm sorry for making another one of these threads, but in my searches not much comes up about my specific situation. Plus this is why a lot of us come here, so hopefully some people will chime in with help.
Me: I've been collecting records for about 15 years and have always listened to them on the total garbage (literally) system that I've either been given or found in the trash. (Bose 360 reciever/Gemini Xl500 TT/Technics 2725 speakers) Honestly been totally happy with it for years, but there comes a time when it's time to move on from your dumpstered stereo...
What I want: Basic tube setup that is specifically (and really only) for vinyl. I don't own any CDs/CD Player, and I don't listen to music on a computer. Not trying to sound too cool for school, but that's where I'm at. This is for a medium sized room. Really looking for that warm midrange tube can bring and a much bigger sound stage. Budget is 3-5K (or waay less if I can get away with it) for everything (TT/Amp/Speakers.) Mostly listen to rock/punk/avant etc... not concerned with newer recordings and the subsonic/dog whistle frequencies they bring to the table.
