I like the idea of using vintage gear to get good amplification for a small price.
Several receivers and amps have been named already (Pioneer SX, Sansui AU, Marantz, Kenwood). Sadly, most of them are quite sought and not that reasonable, unless you have luck and find a local bargain. Based on Ebay, the price for a Pioneer SX-1250 in good condition is not far away from a Master 6 or EF6, especially if a restoration is needed.
Are there any other quality vintage options with a powerful, warm sounding headphone out, that are not so popular and desired?
What about NAD, Sony, Onkyo, Hitachi and Toshiba, for example?
