Oh..... that's easy.....
(01). Vandersteen 2Ce Signatures (and I want them covered with Black Sock Cloth, with Polished Rosewood Caps on the top and bottom of the speakers).
(02). Bryston 3B SST Power Amplifier (and this amp will be perfect for the Vandie 2ce's too.... the Vandies tend to be warm and engaging, and they tend to roll off on the extreme top-end..... the Bryston 3B SST will open the Vandies up on the top-end, and will tighten them up on the bottom, while preserving that open and expansive mid-band and soundstage that I love about the Vandies).
(03). Bryston BP-26 Preamplifier with the Bryston BP-1.5 Phono Stage and MPS-2 Power Supply (if money is no object).
OR
(04). Bryston BP-6 (with their Internal Phono Stage internally installed if money is a little tight (?!?!?!!!)).
(05). And a VPI Aries 3 Turntable (with a Sumiko Blackbird Phono Cartridge) to top things off.
What would I do not to have these!!!!
I need to either:
(01). Marry me a rich spouse who is as much into high-end audio as I am.
(02). Hit the Lotto Millions (even if I got to share the total jackpot).
(03). Dip into the Retirement Fund (which is really not an option).
OR
(04). Work my ass off on two jobs and save like a motherfucker, and hope I come across some of these pieces as a bargain price here on Audiogon (hey.... good luck with that).
Well, we can all dream right????
Too bad this is not a reality right now (and THAT SUCKS too)...
