It,s Impossible

I would like to start a thread that take,s advantage of the many expert audiophile,s here thats not to say any of us are not expert.
For example I have been buying and selling audio gear for 30+ years and the only things I know for sure is that I prefer Spendor speakers and own several sets also I have a small room dedicated to 2 channel that can be tweaked to my hearts desire 11'x20'x9'.
I would like this thread to be about the synergy you have experienced with your equipment not equipment what someone has told you about.

GUIDELINES FOR THREAD
1.Synergy! Tell us about all the pieces in your system working together
2.Analog only
3.20 to 30 thousand cost not more or less
4.Cost includes Preamp, Phono Preamp, Power Amp, Turntable, Arm, Cartridge, Stepup Transformers, cables
5.Cost does not include Speakers,Room, Room treatment,Stands, Isolation, ETC.
6.The guys that have systems that cost far more than the threads budget maybe would share there systems before they went to the next level.

Synergy for less than $20K: Lenco tt with any number of good vintage Japanese tonearms that are available for under $1K + your MM/MI cartridge of choie + good tube phono and linestage + OTL amplifier (many Futterman and some Atma-sphere, Graaf, Joule or other types are available used for less than $5K) + ESL speakers, anything from Acoustat, Quad, Sound Labs, etc, etc. Must be large enough to give decent bass response. Spend the remainder on LPs. Of course, this is my personal idea of synergy. YMMV, etc.

One thing is for sure, the combo of OTL + ESL = synergy

Thanks guys for your comments although i really am surprised at the negative remarks. I simply thought it would be interesting to hear from people that are happy with there systems and why in this cost range.
I do have a complete system and thousands of Lps, as i said before i prefer Spendor speakers. So yes I am interested in improving all other pieces.

Confidential to Tpreaves:

And the space bar is that great big key at the very bottom of the keyboard which is customarily pressed not just between words, but after punctuation marks, too! It requires very little effort, incurs no additional costs, and makes reading ever so much easier!

Happy New Year to you and all fellow 'Goners. Cheers!
