Your greatest high end audio purchase!!!


My audiophile journey has extended to over 40 of adventurous sonic delight. Over the coarse of my over 40 year journey as an audiophile, like so my others, I cycled through a multitude of speakers, amps, cables, etc,. Now that I’m an old guy, I’ve pretty much settled on my "End-Game" audio system for the long haul, primarily because I simply love the way it sounds, and also because, at this juncture, I no longer have the will, nor do I have the desire to continue the crazy (but fun) merry-go-round of audio components in and out like I did in years past (my spouse and my wallet thank me). When I look back on all the high-speed audio gear that I’ve owned down through the years, and after giving it much insightful thought, I’ve come to the conclusion that, after everything was said and done, my beloved Revel Salon 2 speakers were my overall most pleasurable and greatest purchase of all. What was yours?

HeathKit aa-15 integrated amp.  Yes, I built it at 13 years old on the kitchen table.  It did not initially work.  I sent it back with a check to cover their set repair charge plus return shipping.  It was stunningly good.  I was king!
 

Turntable was Dual 1229 with Shure V 15 baby!  I took it to school, slotted it into the band room stereo which ran a high end SS Marantz and the HeathKit crushed it! Just rolled!  I was quite surprised….and happy.  That started my journey.
