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.

To me, best value for money is some cheapish trannie radio. You get a tuner, antenna, amp and loudspeaker in one package. You don't have to buy software, it's all around you. Doesn't come cheaper.....

A pair of Vandersteen 1Bs for $200. Mind bogglingly great for the bread.

Nothing in my experience has been higher value than my current Canary CA-339 amps. Pricey, but worth every nickel.

There used to be a phono only pre-amp with a volume control. It was called the 'Super-It'. My first taste of true highend audio.
