Thanks to those who replied. I ended up recommending the following
system based on my own listening and other experience and a certain
amount of faith.
AR-98LS speakers
Sony STRVX-750 receiver
Technics SLJ2 turntable
Shure V15-V (P type) cartridge
Sony TCK-555 cassette deck
Sony CDP-102 CD player
Total cost about $1700 plus shipping (and Monster Cable or eqyuivalent, of
                                      course :-))
Interestingly, these people are considering not getting the turntable/cart.
as inspection showed that they only had about 30 records playable after
sharing with their kids for some years. Perhaps better to start fresh
with CD, they think.
