What do you LIKE BEST about your current audio system?

Like Elizabeth, I am also retired and listen to my systems 8-10 hours a day.  When I first retired, I went on a big buying spree, upgrading my 2 systems with used McIntosh equipment and brand new speakers for one of the systems.    I love both of my systems, but it's the main one that really gives me goosebumps.  My secondary system is used while I am web surfing and I listen to FM 80% of the time.  I am ecstatic with both systems and have no  need to change anything.  I am now concentrating on researching new music.  The best part is both systems are fully paid for.

The openness, smoothness of texture without loss of detail, the evenness of frequency response and hearing all that a particular recording can offer.

Biggest recent improvement that has enabled me to get there?  Perfect Path Technologies Omega E- Mats.  Two Mats in my electrical service and one under my power regenerator.  Transformative in a revolutionary way. It is as if all restrictions have been vanquished from the system.  Music just dances out of the speakers. Bonuses...you ought to see the picture on my premium series Vizio P65 C-1 screen.  Un-frickin' believable!  On a UHD broadcast, there is a real perception of three dimensionality to the picture.

 Do I know how the E-Mats do what they do?  Nope. I just care that they do what they do and that they do it all the time.  No bad times of day to watch or listen! Every once in a long while you find the thing that....

The richness of sound and they naturalness of tone and how good jazz sounds on my system.  And the fact that through a combination of luck and good advice I've assembled components that work great together and collectively punch well above their weight.

dynamics, weight, detail, clarity, speed...

I've got massive horns in a room large enough for them.

I couldn't be happier.

I fell away from the hobby for some time.   One of my frustrations was looking through my collection for something that I wanted to hear or even knowing what I have.   What a mess.   A music server and Roon has brought me back.   Everything else in my system is solid.   Love the quickness and detail of my speakers.   I dearly love my system!

What I did not like was getting momentarily stuck in the attic when I was running a dedicated line a few months back... now that the bruises have healed I'm happy.
