If you had to start all over again in this day and age

So, with the advent of different technology, sources and platforms these days, if you had to build your home stereo system all over again, what would you purchase to listen to music that brings you satisfaction?

How much of what you have would you keep, change or throw all out and start over again?

If I had to do it all over again. SInce 1976 I have bought at least 140 separate audio components.  And since I am finding I am buying a lot of components that I used to have in the mid 1980s, I would have left things alone for the last 35-40 years with the exception of CD players and streamers.  I would have saved a fortune.  I have yet to experience any amp/preamp better than the Thresholds I had and now have again. The only component I never replaced and still have is my ENTEC SW-1 subwoofer.

I have had well over 100 components through the years. Mostly I am circling back to the 1980s.  So, if I had to do it all over again, I would probably stuck with what I had in the 1980s and left it alone. Except I would have added some digital source components such as CD player and streamer.
