What is the best value you have encountered?


Want to gain knowlege from years past. What items can be found used and represent a good value in terms of bang for your buck. For instance I have Polk Ls 50 speakers that I got for $125 dollars and could have had a set of DCM Timewindows for the same money. Everything I read says that the DCM's still hold thier own in terms of performance for the dollar spent. I want to know what items out there perform way above their price point.

The Denon Dl 103R stretches the dollar further than anything else I've come across in this mixed up hobby.

I agree the NAD 3020 is what got interested in high end audio great choice.
VMPS speakers. Owned them since 96 and just recently became a dealer for them. Truly outstanding speakers for the money.
