Best Component Ever, for the money

The other thread with this title was corrupted in its inception. Let's do this one with NO cables, power cords, isolation devices or tweaks. My vote goes to the Connoisseur turntable (integrated with arm). I don't have it anymore and you shouldn't be able to find one for sale. High end perspective for $150.

Best ever for the money for me is the +/- $450 I spent for the Stan Warren Modified Pioneer DVD Player.

Dburdick; your DNA-0.5 went to a good home and may see some up-grading one of these days, and as I've got a 2nd one-- maybe monos. Cheers. Craig

The dynavector 507 tonearm. Brings the best out of just about every cartridge. It is a masterpiece of visual and engineering design.
