I thought of a new purpose built house to put my new mammoth system in as some others did, but Ill stick to a reasonable lotto gain and what I could actually imagine to fill my present room with.
The "Only One Source"-rule vexes me, though: should I rather do without the wonderful LPs that never made it on CD (or in a miserable state only) or without CDs that are never going to be released on LP???? Oh well, I'll accept the prize and find me someone to digitalize my cherished LPs and burn them on discs then.
Zanden Model 2000 CD transport + Model 5000 Signature DAC
Tidal Preos preamp (2008 incarnation)
Tidal Impact Monoblocs
Tidal Contriva Diacera (2008 incarnation)
Tidal Drum subwoofer(s), not in the product catalogue anymore, but Joern might have a couple left
Copulare Sial stands
Silent Running Audio Ohio XL+ for all amps and source components
complete Purist Audio Design 20th Anniversary with LE powercords, Virtual Dynamics Genesis 1.1, Synergistic Research Tesla Series (ask Ted which ones) or Argento Audio Serenity Master Reference SE cable loom; can't decide that until I would have compared which ones fit my new system best (this bit may look like a bit of overkill, I suppose)
HMS Energia Definitiva and have a dedicated power line installed to feed it
a decent stock of NOS replacement tubes for the DAC
Transparent Acoustic room treatment installed by Dmitry
