Need advice on buying stereo system

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a stereo system (will be mainly used for music and NOT home theater\cinema).
These are some sets I have listened to, and I am interesting in your opinion regarding the companies & models (if you had any experience with it).
The first 2 sets are brand new while the last 2 are used (i.e. from second hand or display).

1st set:
Amp

CD Review: Lookin' At Monk - Johhny Griffin, Eddie Lockjaw Davis Quintet

Forums

Label: OJC Recorded: February 1961, Total Time: 39:04
Performance:***** Sonics: *****

Let me first say that I am a sax fan when it comes to jazz. While artists like Coltrane and Sonny Rollins are usually talked about when people talk about jazz giants I believe that both Griffin and Davis are overlooked. That said this is one hard bop swingin' album with great soft sonics that sound like your listening through a tube amp (easy now tube devotees !).

REEL AZIMUTH

Theres a guy over on Dimeadozen.org that's putting up all his master reels. Unfortunately, and he and i have gone around and around on this issue, he doesn't care about azimuth. You listen to his stuff, its like Dude, Tune your tapes in!!! Calibrate!!! But he thinks you gotta tune the Zenith and al this other stuff and he's scared to death to try it.

Tower speakers with jack connection

Forums

Hi, I'm new and this may not be in the correct location, but here goes (mods please move it if I am wrong!)

My Goodmans tower speakers currently have jack style connections to the main unit, however the unit is damaged and I wish to purchase a new stereo and use the speakers for my home computer.

The speakers have a universal jack the same as the ones on earphones, however I need a cable with two inputs for them, and one to go into the back of the computer.

Does such a thing exist?

Many thanks in advance
