That is why I refurbished my Harman-Kardon amp from 1991 and listen CDs and LPs through it increasingly these days. It drives either some Revox speakers I be also bought at that time or a HifiMan Edition XS. That thing is outright amazing. The pinnacle of mixing was in the 80s as far as my collection is concerned. The 70s were much experimenting and the 90s already too compressed.
