What is the #1 equipment want currently on your HiFi horizon???

That's easy, I need a Aurender N100SC streamer, the one with the digital coax output and on board SSD for your library.. That thing is nice, problem is I just picked up a Schiit Yggdrasil and a bunch of Synergistic Research Orange fuses (which are shockingly amazing) so I need to cool it on buying toys for a little while.

A pair of good subs, maybe Rel t9 or similar to go with my LRS.  Or possibly move up the Maggie line to 1.7i?  Also a better DAC than the Joilda I have now.  Damn those Denafrips reviews!  :-) 

I've been toying with the idea of investing in an R2R DAC.  Specifically the Denafrips Pontus II. 

I haven't pulled the trigger because I'm fairly confident it wont be a order of magnitude improvement over my current Gustard X16.  

I'm keeping and eye on the used market and if a good deal on a Pontus II pops up, I might go for it.

Mullard el84s and SR foundation PCs…
then I really am done :-)

I haven’t pulled the trigger because I’m fairly confident it wont be a order of magnitude improvement over my current Gustard X16.

not gonna happen... order of magnitude improvements just don’t happen in this pursuit unless you are talking about spendor sp100's over bose 301’s

$1700 chi-fi r2r dac over $600 chi-fi ds unit... lucky if its 10-15% better... then we all decide how much that is worth to us...

but once you have heard better, the lesser option is pretty hard to retreat to...
