Aragon Soundstage is the BEST pre (new or used) in that price range. The trouble is finding one. Especially for music.........

Sounds like Ricky T to me.
NHT are hard to beat for...
Just sell me the PT LP's and be done with the turntable madness!
Short of doing that, I'll second the Technics. You are still going to spend $200 with a decent p-mount cartridge for either the bd20 or bd22 model table (or more)....
Depends on how much power you need. You can grab a used Anthem PVA-7 for around $900. Nice amp if you have efficient speakers. If you have power hog speakers, this won't do, maybe the outlaw or sherbourn for tougher to drive speakers....
Doesn't the T5 have a seperate sub? You won't get the gut wrenching bass like you would with a SVS but it goes into mid 20hz range. I think you will have plenty of bass but I should be one to talk. Since I have complete overkill...
