My 20-year list is somewhat long with a (currently) happy ending:
1. Kyocera R-851
2. CJ Premier 11A (I still have it in a second system)
3. Monarchy Audio SE 160 Hybrid Monos
4. Lamm M1.1 Hybrid Monos
5. Stellavox PW1 Monos
6. Van Alstine Ultra 550 Hybrid
7. McCormack DNA-500
Paired with a deHavilland Mercury 2 pre, the DNA-500 is cranking even as I write.
