Help me spend my money

Hi folks! I have about $1000-1500 to spend and would love to get your thoughts on how I should spend it for maximum benefit. I was originally thinking about room treatments but being the audiophile I am I couldnt resist the thought of getting more gear! Here are my options:

Light Harmonic Light Speed USB cable
USB Converter - Bel Canto or Berkeley
Bass Traps - RealTraps Mondo Traps
Absorption panels for 1st reflection points on side walls and ceiling - Vicoustic Cinema Round
New CAPS PC music server
Buy more music!

I appreciate your input!

FWIW,

No one can know what room treatments will work in your room who isn't standing in it when they are installed. ;-)

I don't want to be a gossip, but I keep hearing people all over the various forums say they prefer a number of other USB cables over the LH Light Speed. Haven't heard it myself, but I'd definitely try out several before plunking down any cash.

You have great equipment, so it would help if you described what you're still yearning for.

Buy a record player. Even a $1500 table like a Marantz (complete with cart) will give you more musical satisfaction than any digital cable. I have nothing against digital, but it's not analog. You should have the option.

If you are still using your Musical Fidelity V-Link, I would say upgrade to something better. You should hear a big improvement.
