Best Home HIFi you’ve listened to


Gents/Gals: 

A general question on a “Total System” that YOU have heard at a buddies or acquaintance home. ( not a one night stand at audio show or retailer)
 

Is there a best system you have heard, that you consider darn near the best you can achieve ?  Or just the best sounding home system that a friend has, and you have spent some wonderful time with ?

or Maybe yours ? 

What kind of system was it ?  Components, etc 

Is there truly nirvana at a home

1978 at Doug Cassara’s house in Harrison, NY. His system: Quad 57’s driven by a pair of Futterman H3aa OTL amps. Signal source was a Marantz Seven tube preamp, Thorens 125 TT/Rabco SL7 arm/Panasonic Strain Gauge cartridge. We listened to Brand X’s Moroccan Roll LP. Amazing SQ! I had to go searching for Quad’s and Futterman’s! Now, decades later I have two pairs of 57’s and a pair of H3aa’s plus a rare Harvard Music H3 stereo version - plus a Thorens 125/Rabco arm.
