What s your latest buy? Happy with it?


Curious what the latest thing is that you added to your system? Did you buy new or used? How happy are you with the purchase? Did it meet your expectations?

(For me, it was a PS Audio PowerPlant for CD and Pre, used, very happy and exceeded expectations cause it made the system improve more than I thought possible.)

I just purchased the Sonic Frontiers Line 1. I've previously owned the Anthem 2PL and liked the overall sound but was curious to hear the Line 1 and am glad I did. The sound is neutral meaning no real character just there sort of, with a slight touch of meat on the midrange. I might need you guys to help me with my next upgrade though. My system consists of PSB Goldi's, Acurus ACD11 transport, MSB LinkIII DAC with the P1000 power supply, SF Line1 pre, B&K EX4420 2-channel amp, Harmonic Truth Link ITC's and DH labs Q10 Bi-wired Speaker cables. I'm considering blowing out my MSB DAC with a mod by Dan Wilson or getting the Full Nelson upgrade from MSB. Although I like my amp, I'm curious once again to try something else. My dilemma is which one do I change next the DAC or the amp? Source or power? My gut says max out my source capabilities before I change my power. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks for any input.
My last purchase that I am keeping is the Harmonic Technology Magic Link Interconnects. I am happy with them because they sound nattural vs. Electronic and they are almost half the cost of the cables I was comparing them to. I am currently trying the Shunyata Hydra and it seems to have evened out the differences between the to cables as well as improved the sound of my system on the whole. The soundstage got huge, details became more easy to hear, not as discrete sounds but as part of the overall soundstage.
Picked up one of those Blue Circle BC-86 Noise Hound Power Pillows that are auctioned here on AudiogoN. Got it used/mint from an individual for $225. This thing really works. Quite an amazing product.
My last purchase is a Muse Model 9 sig dvd/cd player. Replaced my Wadia 850 and a Marantz 7000 dvd. Bought is new for a great price. Awesome step up...
Last week for a big $175 I bought a used Conrad Johnson Premier 2 with Premier 3 face & knobs. All I have to say is WOW. I can't stop listening. I get up early in the morning so I can sit undisturbed. VERY satisfied. Not too long before that I switched to a used ($300) Adcom 555. Also an incredibly good change in the system.
