Another option to consider If you don't need to listen to radio really loud then you can try checking out the 50's German table radios. Fantastic sound and many do have hookups for phono. I might know someone too with sets available. The names to check out are Telefunken, Saba, Nordmende and Grundig. The higher end sets sell pretty reasonably. As noted you really want to find one that has been restored. The sound is very good.

Edit- also I would highly recommend Terry Dewick for amp repair. I have used him for some tube radio recaps and he was very reasonable and turn around time was very good too.
