What is Your End Game System?


How do you "measure" your end game system? Is it by budget, how much it cost? Is it by the luxuriousness of your build and room?

Is it by your components being either state of the art or unobtanium? Is it by the satisfaction you get when you are sitting in your listening chair?

What is your end game system and how do you know when you have reached it?

My end game setup, including the room would be centered around top of the line MBL speakers.  If I can't afford those, then one notch down in MBL lineup - 101 E vs. 101 xtreme in current lineup.  A good tube preamp would be next, and 101 Es have very poor sensitivity of 81 db, so a good strong set of solid state amps would be in order.  I doubt I would be able to afford x-tremes, and even if I had $200K to spend on something awesome made in Germany, a Porsche would be much higher on the priority list.

A Porsche, while fun do drive plus being a great sports car, and it has that "look at me" factor, they are not really all that dependable.  If you do buy one, be sure to have Geico Auto Insurance, and include in your policy, the Mechanical Breakdown Insurance.  THAT will save your bacon, unless that is, the sound of Benjamins flying out of your wallet.  :P

That Porsche shock tower looks like buildings I saw after an earthquake here in Christchurch NZ - the concrete pilings were driven straight up through the concrete floors.

Not as bad though as a Mitsubishi Evo driver at our Audi club meet where some wag turned the active yaw control off and went straight off the track on the first lap. Car was a write-off. Never saw him again.

 

You can get a Porsche Cayenne and an end game immersive audio Auro 3D sound system as a package deal:

 

One can argue that if there is a radio in it, then it is not a sports car.
