If it was something decent 35 years ago, like Marantz or Yamaha or so, then there is no progress. But if you have quirks with the old parts, go to a specialty hi-fi store, Saturn also has such a section, take a look at a Yamaha receiver, and the matching CD player. Price-performance speaks for this brand. Solid components, real on and off switch. Pur direct circuit to listen to, for example, classical music undistorted. Good, large speaker terminals, proper radio reception. If needed, also punch without getting hot. High-quality. No plastic cases. As speakers, I recommend that you find out by listening yourself, not by reviews. My son, for example, loves Heco, I find Canton better, as it is less dry, warmer. But he also listens to other music. More lounge and techno, I more hard rock and also classical. You hear yourself in a direct comparison what I mean. And budget around 900-1000 for such a set. It doesn't have to cost more. Karsten
