The BEST system you've ever built !!!!


What is the best system that you have ever put together , from source to speakers including cables ??? After all the swaps and auditions I'm looking for the final "aahhh, that's the ticket" sound to you and what components took you to Audio Nirvana. {This is a survey of actual auditions, not what you read in a magazine} THANKS,

Jim -- wow! You STILL have that speaker system, right?

Please don't say you've sold it... it'll take $50+ grand for a commercial sonic equivalent (if not more).
(IF you still have it, why not go for 2x15" spkrlabs per channel in an W open baffle -- as per Linkwitz. Should give you tremendous authority down to ~30Hz with some equalisation).
