What is Your End Game System?


How do you "measure" your end game system? Is it by budget, how much it cost? Is it by the luxuriousness of your build and room?

Is it by your components being either state of the art or unobtanium? Is it by the satisfaction you get when you are sitting in your listening chair?

What is your end game system and how do you know when you have reached it?

I have my endgame system now through much trial and error and just dumb luck!  
The synergy of the components is amazing.  Not the most expensive system, but the parts all fit together perfectly.

I honestly never consulted Stereophile’s list. It took me about 2-3 years once I decided to begin a major upgrade.
Funny story: The only reason I obtained the Benchmark amplifier is as a stopgap measure after my original monoblock amps stopped working and were out for repair.  Just picked it at random with no thought in mind. I never intended to keep it, intended to return it.  Then, I listened to it.  Major game changer.  That’s what I mean by dumb luck.  Otherwise, I bought and returned various components until I got the synergy right.
