$5000 to spend....


....Bad news is I got laid off... Good news is I got a nice check for unused vacation time. I'm putting most of it towards a rainy day, but if I were to spend $5000 of it on "improving" my system, how would it best be spent? Is there one component that should be upgraded? Or, should I divvy up the money and put it towards a couple of components? Of course, there are those 2003 Bordeaux and Sauternes futures to consider.. :-)

Please save your cash. My current low cost recommendation to amaze yourself with the "hidden potential" of your present system involves a micro purchase of Walker Audio SST contact enhancer, which I first "heard" in the Lloyd Walker suite during the recent NYC Home Entertainment Show.
Makes excellent items, like your Gregg Straley wiring, even better. Even the highest end wiring seemed to benefit at the show. Your entire system will sound better, and you won't have to strain to hear the upgrade.
Never underestimate the peace of mind gained with significant amount of cash still left in the bank.
Good luck getting over this bump in the road.
I believe Audiogon member Tpsonic can have Walker Audio SST shipped to you at a reasonable cost, or he (Tom) can tell you who to contact to obtain any Lloyd Walker product. If you look at his system, posted here on Audiogon, you get more than a hint about his audiophile credentials.
