What has been your most satisfying component?

I'd cry if something happened to my nad 4020 Tuner. Great sensitivity, selectivity, rejection in a steel hi-rise condo notorious for poor signal. Fortunate to have 2 wonderful stations, 1 with folk/acoustic/blues in the morning and the other with mostly all-day classical programming.

At this point, I would have to say my DIY 3 way speakers.

Sold my paradigm s8 and wilson sophia after I built these speakers.

My Rogue Cronus Magnum. I thought I was going to have to sell my speakers until I bought the Rogue. Then there's my NAD C317 integrated that's my stand by.

Three years from my first response to this thread and I'm still using the Resolution Audio CD-50 and Meadowlark Audio Kestrels. Amazing with the amount of equipment churning through my system. There have quite a few, 10 maybe, others cdps trying to boot the CD-50 but nothing is as satisfying. As for the Kestrels, I really couldn't guess how many speakers, some very good ones too, have seen duty. Nothing has come close to the over all musicality these pieces bring to my room.

VPI CLASSIC!!!
