List your breakthrough products that you’ve discovered on this audiophile Journey.

1. Add Powr sorcerer X2/4 

Get this guy with a Nordost QB base and chuck your high $$$ power conditioning units for sale on the ‘Gon.

2. Hemingway Zcore cables. The beginning line of Zcore called the Alpha will outrun 90% of the super high end cables on the market 😱. They’ve been tested by those who run the big name brands and the Alpha comes out on top. Why? One word, realism. The next line up called the Beta is where the breakthrough Technology comes into play. Install a few of these and you will be a believer in this design. Sigma and Omega are next in line and although big $$$ you don’t suffer the law of diminishing returns.

3. Theoretica Applied Physics Bacch-SP Adio 3D Sound Processer. One box does it all. The future in one box. Bottom feeders will choke on this one.

About eight months ago I purchased an Astell & Kern SE100 portable player. That together with the Campfire Audio Ara earphones and Campfire's pure silver litz cable sounds great.

What made it a breakthrough for me was that it is portable. It will do FLAC and Qobuz offline. I can take it with me on trips, sitting on the dock, watching soccer and baseball practice, wherever. 

It really sounds excellent and I do not have to be in front of my main system in order to hear great sounding music.

In my 50 years as an audio hobbyist, there’s been a lot of stuff that gave me "ah-ha-s", but if I had to pick the one that floored me, it would have to be the Symposiuim Rollerblocks/Balls under my CDP.

@dougeyjones 

The speaker connections for my sub's I had no idea what they were there for, along with XLR connections for amps/preamps and such. It was just a moment where I'm like "I know nothing about HiFi". That's all I meant, but now I just need to listen more and read less.

I feel the sound is better, but nothing objectively to base it off of.
