First give $50,000.00 to your favorite charity, then Buy a ARC Reference Phono or Conrad Johnson 15 and a Mercedes 320E. If you like I would wouldn't mind a Conrad Johnson Art II for the advice. You will still have plenty left over! Seriously I have been into high end audio since I was 8. And one thing I have learned is that super high end audio can be a super waste of money. You can buy second hand last years ARC , Conrad Johnson, VTL , BAT, Lamm, Levenson,SME,VPI,Krell, Etc. And own the best sounding audio gear for a lot less than the price of a house. Right here on Audiogon!
