Start over--HiFi rig ---clean slate

I'm interested in the thoughts of this forum.
All seem to be well read and informed.

IF YOU WERE TO START OVER:

Cost would be a variable and you were to pick the pinnacle of your desires,(& hopefully listened to them) what would it be: Speakers,amp,preamp & source

The format:
1) speaker brand and name
2) amp
3) preamp
4) source

My wish:
1) Thiel cs3.7
Add two velodyne DD-15 subs
2) Devaliet 400 mono-2 ( not listened to)
3) above
4) computer audio- mac with amarra symphony & Dirac IRC

The format:
1) I second the Thiel CS3.7s but if you live in Australia, I'd also look at the Lenehan Audio ML2 Limited speakers.

2) I'd go for the Thiel SmartSub 2.2s (twin) with the S1 integrator or the PX passive version
2) PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP monoblocks
3) Audio Research Reference 5SE (or 10 if I could afford it)
4) Playback Designs MPS-5 SACD with USB-XT
5) CAPS v3 ZUMA

I've found my Mac Mini with A+, Amarra, PM to lose out to a quiet/fanless linear PSU PC.
