Is "live" music sound possible for under $1K


I primarily liston piano, chamber and opera. I was wondering if anyone had experience producing a realistinc presentation for about $1K not including the source? My listening room is 14 x 20 X 8. I thought this could be accomplished by an inexpensive tube pre-amp ($200-300) and older vintage amp such as a Pioneer Spec 4 or Yamaha approx $300, and possibly some older klipsh's (KG-4) or newer Axiom's M22ti's approx $400. Am I on the right track? Has anyone been able to accomplish this? Any recommendations for any of the 3 items?

I do NOT agree on the KG'4 slam, Actually for about 125.00 you would be smart to get some.Yes the bass is loose compared with ? etc., but hook these up to A Yamaha M-70,80,85,mx1000u,etc mated with a Superphon SP-100 buffered passive pre,cheap std 12 awg cable,w/some Heartland 89259w/Eichmans'interconnects,& you will be so very surprised at what you have just done,This set up is as fun & enjoyable with know fatigue as my $ 30.000 well matched main system, All for under a 1000, The Superphon might take some time to find , but well worth it.Stan Warren knows what he is doing with out a dought.

Maybe we have to ask Fabio, since he own a million bucks
system,just guessing,If He came too close to live music.
As Far as I remember I read an article, when Fabio
put all the sub He has, He made all his guest vomited,
they thought they have food poison,I think Whoopi Goldberg
is also there.I agree with 1k you might be able to get
satisfaction from it.
Music that makes people vomit! Is this what every audiophile's aim is? I wonder! I certainly would not like to listen to his system.

Live music and reproduced music are two different things, I am not saying one is better than the other but DIFFERENT.
The "Vominator" Sub. Hmmm, I see marketing potential here.

Good call, Trejla. I forgot all about those commercials. My first LOL in a while.
