The BEST system you've ever built !!!!

What is the best system that you have ever put together , from source to speakers including cables ??? After all the swaps and auditions I'm looking for the final "aahhh, that's the ticket" sound to you and what components took you to Audio Nirvana. {This is a survey of actual auditions, not what you read in a magazine} THANKS,

After 30 years of tweaking, upgrading, etc. I have finally gone "all in" with the following: Analog - VPI Aires, JMR, BenzMicro Ruby II, Phono stage BAT VP-10; Digital - Wadia 270/27ix; Preamp - BAT VK50SE; Amp - Mark Levinson 33; Speakers - Dynaudio Evidence; cabeling - Harmonic Technology (this is the only area I would consider changing at this point); Other - PS Audio 600, Tube Traps, and other assorted tweak products. The system sounds magnificent and can, with the right material, truly create that elusive illusion of "being there."

Since this thread just keeps on going, here's an update to my 10/6/00 posting: pre-amp is now Levinson #32, cables have been changed to Transparent Reference XL, and I've added the Argent Room Lenses. Each of these items made a considerable improvement in system performance and the cumulative result is fantastic. Until the SACD dust settles, I'm DONE!
