Your "DREAM" piece

If you could replace one component in your present system with a "dream" piece, regardless of price, that would be synergistic with your other components, what would you choose? Remember, don't pick a piece that you could not use with the rest of your other components, such as a SET amp because your speakers are not efficent enough or a pair of speakers that your present electronics could not drive to an optimum level because of not enough watts/current. My "dream" piece would be to replace my Pass Labs X-350.5 with the Pass Labs X/A-200 mono-block amps. It would "only" cost about another 20 grand, but this thread is a fantasy anyways, right! Hope just for fun you GON members will share your "dream" pieces with the rest of us. Thanks.

if I could have one piece gently dropped in my lap it would be a Sota Cosmos with a Graham arm and Shelter 901 but I would settle for a SME arm...

For me, the Walker Proscineum Gold turntable and it's companion Prologue rack with the Magic Diamond cart.

Wow, that's a tough one. I think I'd have to say, after much deliberation, a Nagra PL-P preamplifier. That's a piece of audiophile eye/ear candy I've lusted after for years! And if not that, then a Linn Sondek CD-12. I want them both, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd like to swap out my Flatfish for the PiTracer, It's no longer a dream, but I think I will always remain curious.

Schröder Reference tonearm. If I could have the other half of the set up it would be the two armed Teres 255-2 with the Schröder Ref, ZYX Fuji, and Hagerman Trumpet phono. But I'll take just the tonearm and buy the rest myself, thank you.
