Hello All,

As you can well imagine, I have no idea as to what is available to replace
this unit. I've gone to several of the "big box" stores but there is so much
to choose from. I haven't shopped for audio equipment for over 20 years!

I have over 2,000 vinyl albums and will hook up my Dual turntable to the new
unit. If the new unit has AM & FM, all the better! That's about all I need.
Looking for a unit around $150-$250. Is that realistic?

Just seeking good sound and reliability. Something around 100-150 watts RMS.

Are you on welfare? You have 2,000 albums, that I assume that you
enjoy listening-to, and, appearently, you've had 20 years to save-up
for your next audio upgrade. All you want to spend is $250?

How old are you? Maybe you should consider that the next receiver you
buy may be the last one you ever need to buy. Maybe you should stop
squeezing each penny until you can't discern Abe Lincoln's face, and
buy yourself something of high quality and high performance.
