absolute best component you ever owned

......it's a toss-up between my McCormack DNA-2DX amp and Levinson 360S DAC. These are each incredibly musical pieces of equipment, and along with a Levinson 37 Transport, are going to be permanent pieces in my system. Craig.

craig: i might make book on the last clause of your post. permanent? cmon', you're gonna replace all your stuff eventually, unless you lose your interest, your livelihood or your heartbeat. you're an audiophile! (and i mean that in a nicest possible way.) ;~) -kelly

The only thing that remains a constant in my system are my Target Beta equipment stands. Never felt the need to upgrade or replace 'em!

My Dahlquist DQM9's which I have had for 15 years and they still blow away many newer brand speakers.

I write this with out any reservation to this day I have listened to a few speakers, as we all have, I'm sure. However, the SILVERLINE SONATA'S MKll are just INCREDIBLE,
the IMAGING and the RANGE of these speakers are just AMAZING.
From the Bottom all the way through to the top, these speakers will surprise you for the price. I have not heard another speaker in the same price range and up to $15000.00 that comes close. If you know of one, please let me know, I would live to hear it. Like after a great meal, there is always room for dessert!
