New, 30 years old or what?
I am seeing all kind of stuff, and audiophile meaning what?

These were probably the first true "audiophile" "bookshelf" speakers. Listed for $430.00/pair U.S. in 1977. Used ones in prime condition now fetch big bucks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LS3/5A

Classic preamp and amp under $400 could be tough. Finding a pretty solid integrated and decent bookies could be done.

..." My " favorite list below:
- Able to be found under $200.00 used
Bookshelf bargains: no foam surrounds ( smaller then ADVENTS, KLH, Ar etc. )
- DCM CX-17 or Timepiece - efficiency 90db or better. Concentric drivers/time transmission design. Best bargain - $100 - $150.00
- Signet SL260 - like power - Signet maker of phono cartridges. Rare to find for sale. Either a bargain or higher priced gem.
- Polk w/peerless - M5/M5jr or M7 - search can get them cheap. Plus parts available. Marvin.com makes Peerless tweeter replacements.
