What has been your most satisfying component?

I don't think I have seen this question asked so here it goes. Many of us tend to buy and sell looking for the ideal, the holy grail, what works best in the current system, or whatever.
What component (or components)have stood the test of time in your system? I've been through quite a few but some have stayed despite having bought their replacements and subsequently selling them. I'll share once we get a few posts to get things going.

Resolution Audio CD-50, this player provides such detail it truly amazes me each time I play a well known cd on it for the first time. Listening to Jeff Buckley -- Grace now, and sure enough I'm hearing music that was missing before.
Meadowlark Audio Kestrel Hot Rods a close second. They're in the closet now but they are fantastic for what I paid for them.

Son of a gun, I reread my post written Jan 07, I'm still using the pieces listed. That is amazing.

Three years from my first response to this thread and I'm still using the Resolution Audio CD-50 and Meadowlark Audio Kestrels. Amazing with the amount of equipment churning through my system. There have quite a few, 10 maybe, others cdps trying to boot the CD-50 but nothing is as satisfying. As for the Kestrels, I really couldn't guess how many speakers, some very good ones too, have seen duty. Nothing has come close to the over all musicality these pieces bring to my room.
