As you have moved on, are there any items you remember fondly...or most fondly?

As many on this site, I have had much in the way of the "high-end".  There are, fortunately, many good items I could list that are still in my head/heart....but the two that come to mind quickly are the Thiel CS-1.5 and the Conrad Johnson ART pre-amp.......If I go back to the beginnings the DQ-10 would be one of the most impactful to my audio/hi-fi experience/knowledge.   I don't really have the space right now, but when I do, I may put together a "retro" system for fun and nostalgia....you know, kind of like doing a '57 Chevy two door hardtop with a repaint, updated suspension/brakes and a 350 horse 327 with a Muncie 4-speed.....etc...  Although a 288 GTO and tickets to a live performance in Copenhagen would be O.K. too.

My pair of Acoustat Fours. A great speaker that needs tons of power. I would love to hear them in my present system.

Linaeum Model 10. Prominent warm mid-bass, a bit rolled off on top, but a lovely soundstage one listener said, "You're not listening to it you're swimming in it!"

Acoustat 2 + 2. I brought them home with an amp capable of powering them. I couldn’t afford the amp and the speakers, so choose to get the amp first and by the time I paid off the amp no longer had a place large enough for the speakers.

Right there with oregonpapa and ghdprentice. My pair of Acoustat Model 6. Tough on amps but I’ll never forget that sound.
