Nice system, but I would also change the BAT, although I like it, for the Sony SCD-777. It is wonderful with PCM and you also get SACD. You can also buy it new for $1600 (if you can still find one) and have money to buy more important things like MUSIC!!!
Cost is no object is easy, but....
If you had a budget of $10,000 to build a single source (CD, SACD, Analog etc.) two channel system with used or new products what products would get your vote. My vote is:
BAT VKD5 ($2,000 used)
2 Harmonic Tech Pro Sil II ($500 used)
Cat SL1 MKIII ($2,000 used)
AR VT100 MKII ($2,100 used)
Cardas Neutral Reference ($400 used)
Audio Physic Vergo ($2500 used)
9 Black Diamond Racing Cones ($500 new).
