Hey Jerry,
I would venture to guess that you are younger than 'Al Nico' and I am. All my favorite stuff has tubes, and I've always run screaming from receivers. Interesting to see nearly Zero overlap between your list and mine. We share Advents, but you are the guru, Advent zen-master, and I don't really love mine, which I've had since new. ZERO overlap then.Back in high school (in the 60's) I used to work in a stereo shop, fixing tube stuff and lusting after Marantz & Macs & KLH-9's. That was when solid state gear was just beginning to become credible. The next decade was the golden age, but by then I had stuff, so I wasn't in the market.
How much of your gear is sourced from the late 70's early 80's? At what age did you start accumulating your lore with regard to well-made, nice-sounding Japanese gear? Inquiring minds want...
