Ever Bought an Audio Product that was Stupid Good for the Money?


This is the place to share. Please no shills.

I don't like vinyl (grew up with it). I have never had a good audio system, and I am 60 yr-old medical school professor. Here is my system:
Wilson WattPuppy 7 speakers;
McIntosh 275 amp;
New version of the McIntosh C22 preamp;
MCT450 CD player; 
D150 preamp that can accomadate any file format (downloads, SACD, upsamples redbook, etc).

I had listened to the PS Audio Directstream combination of player and DAC, the Dytek Manhattan II DAC (MQA) and the Marantz SA-10, but the all-McIntosh system with the Wilson speakers just blew my mind. But I am of the 60's generation-still the sound is unbelievable - even my best friend who has 2 warehouses of vintage audio hardware could not believe the sound. FWIW - Gerry
A little voice is telling me Wilson Watt Puppy 7s don't really fit into the category of Stupid Good for the Money.

Fully restored Gale GS401A speakers. To me they not only sound incredible they also look incredible. Not bad for only $1,500 including shipping from David Smith at Vintage Gale in the UK.
