ever sat down and mapped out your DREAM system?


in fact, your dream system could be your CURRENT system, which is great! Mine is a mix b/w some current and some wish list gear- feel free to include stuff you might have heard at a show or in a friend's system, and especially your OWN stuff. Since I'm a Canuck, some of my stuff has got to be Canadian! Also list your preferences too- I value detail retrieval; low noise floor; harmonic completeness and impact across the spectrum; and grainless purity. By the way- please list 'current' (if you have it in your system now) or 'dream' beside your choices. Lastly, if you put 'current' beside a choice, it means that you are SO happy with that particular component in your system, you may NEVER want to upgrade it! OK, here goes:

Coincident Total Victory speakers (current)
Cabling- Coincident and Pure Note (current)
Wyetech Labs Topaz 572 amp (dream)
Audion Premier Quattro 4-box preamp w phono (dream)
Spectral 3000SL transport (current)
Audio Note Dac 3.1 Balanced (current)
Kharma Grand Ref digital cable (current)
Turntable- VPI TNT HR-X (dream)
sutts
I mapped it in V. Systems, but deleted it, so now it only exists in my living room. I focus on tonal balance(=impact across the spectrum?) and tone. Resolution and dynamics are nice, but currently, I don't have the resources or will to care about anything except TB and T.
