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,

So far in my 45 years, the last 20+ buying and selling pieces to get my system just right. I have to say my current system.
Pair B&W 805D
B&W sub
Moon .5 CD
VTL 2.5 Preamp
Sonic Frontiers SFS50
Music Hall MMF 2.2 LE
Arcam rDAC wireless music stream
Nordost cables/interconnects throughout
Bi-amped Maggie tympani 1d's,line sourced arranged RTR esr15's added.crossed/filtered at 5K. janis w2 sub w/it's amp crossover. Modified dyna st-70 (rtr amp) and pas preamp.(modified) pioneer spec II amp (maggie bass/mid amp). sound design amp for maggie tweets.Audio research/magneplanar crossover made for this setup.Thorens TD 145 table w/rewired tonearm. Retipped grace F9E ruby cartridge. tuner,cd players. I'm the original owner of all 'cept the rtr's.No purchases since the 80's except the cd players.I did all the mods w/occasional help. ALL w/less than $4000 invested, hard for anybody to beat that sound for the buck value. Remember 1980's $4000. Not all things to all people but I've never listened to anything that comes CLOSE to it for even$20K. No esoteric amps,cables,audio voodoo,just reasonable eqpt.picked to do a specific job. Plenty of power for the hungry maggies,added rtr's give a little sparkle. janis used sparingly for the VERY bottom punch. Just wish I had them back in the room they deserve but that's life.
I've now got my favorite so far, Red Wine 30.2 amp, Gallo 3.1 reference speakers, CAL delta transport, Metrum Octave DAC, Kimber 8TC speaker cables, black cat and audioquest interconnects
