What component to hang on to?

Hello all,

So - the search for a new truck and house infrastructure needs make me consider selling off my main listening system. Having said that, I remain a consummate audiophile who knows I’ll eventually rebuild my system. However, I;’m thinking I should hold onto ONE element in the chain to serve as a building block for my future system. Any advice on what component to hold on to would be appreciated. Or sell all of them?

Components:

Acoustic Zen Adagio speakers (sold)

Hegel 160 integrated

Oppo 105 BDP

VPI HW-19 MK4 turntable with SAMA with Benz Micro Ace SH cartridge and Sumiko FT-3 tonearm

Jolida JD9 Mk 2 phono with Mullard tubes

AZ Tsunami IC’s

Decware Styx cables

I agree, @simao , that the Oppo will be very, very hard to replace at a decent price; so I'd keep it; especially if yuo have a nice SADC/HDCD/DVD-A collection.

I don't know how acute your need for capital is; but it seems there is much demand for the VPI. You'd probably get the best ROI from selling it. Too bad since you really like it.
