Do you use one brand of electronics or are you mixing brands what has worked best for you?

Depends, I follow sonic choices not dogmatic mix or same brand.

For my SS main system, it’s currently the same.  I’ll eventually buy a second SS amp for variety like GanFET, sliding Class A, Class N…

For my flea watt system, it’s different as I’m investigating tube amps

@ghdprentice you have one very nice system.  I have seen it before and now have a chance to say how really awesome it is.  

I've had a different experience than you in my audiophile journey.  I have pretty much always mixed and matched my audio components, as well as my cabling with superb results.  Happy listening.    

I match my preamp, amp and speakers - Mark Levinson and Revel.The other components not at all.

I am mostly McIntosh with a VPI turntable. My power conditioner is Shunyata.
