What was the most expensive record that you ever bought ?

@mikelavigne Very cool!

I have the Classic Records180g LZII and the RL SS. I will do a comparison after I get my new TT. 

OT but do you use any special isolator pucks/pods etc directly under your DAC, streamer and amplifiers?

I've recently heard very good things about Stack Audio's Auva 100's for speaker isolation and their EQ's for individual components. I think it's time to replace my Stillpoints spikes/disc under my sub and speakers with something better...Thank you. 

I paid $525 each for Led Zeppelin I and IV, Classic Records Clarity Vinyl one sided 45 rpm versions. Quite nice sounding. I have no regrets spending the dough. I bought them directly from Classic Records when they were still in business and when they had a 20% off sale. These are the white box sets that have recently been listed on eBay for over $2000.

i’m also big into resonance control and i prefer decoupling in various ways; i use Arya RevOpods (32 of them) under my Wadax digital, which is 5 chassis. each chassis sit’s on a Taiko Daiza platform, which then sit on my Massif racks which use Nordost Sort Fut footers. pictures on my system link.

my preamp and monoblock amps sit on Taiko Tana active shelves.

this gear isolation discussion should be taken to another thread so as not to derail this thread topic. if you do i will follow along.

Steely Dan’s Aja from Discogs. There was a review on you tube where someone did a shootout with 6 versions of Aja. He determined that the “Cisco” was the best. So, I gambled $400 based on his review and it is awesome. I cannot spend that or nowhere near on a record collection. Therefore I continue to upgrade my digital gear so streaming sounds good. 

@mikelavigne 

I agree and will not derail any further. I don't know which isolation thread is most current/relevant but in the meantime, I will scour your links. Thank you.
