"Just learned that zanden when set up correctly is simply one fine system"
Absolutely agree. As I am leaving with one for now over a year, progressively built, now complete with simply astounding 9600 monos. Simply unbelievable.
Other all one make system I have heard is the Audio note Ongaku based system, complete with Audio note speakers. Probably much pricier, but not better, than my Zanden. Detlof mentioned Wavac. I have heard all wavac (pre and amp) at CES and sound was believable (un);-) Lamm would be another outstanding brand I have heard. Polar opposite would be an all MBL system, when set up right is also great. Still nothing is like Zanden. To my ears.
