Where does it end......... I mean there is always another step better. How ever good the system gets. Could just make one final improvement. Just one more update would surely finish it ! ??

.....

I think I have my system on plateau, to move to the next level up, gets obscene :eek:

....but still I scour the adverts to perhaps give me a lead into the next world....

Dam that action site :mad:

I'll stop when the screen size reaches 200" and I have 3 rows of seats in my completely blacked out home cinema

Think you can find that in most large towns

The AV side I think bottoms out much sooner than the Audio/music side.

Well you can't get the Klimax crossovers anymore I need...... But I did win a very late spec LK style Tunebox with the right cards in today on the bay.

Cost me a bit, as they are like rocking horse poo !....... (£695 inc)
Least it opens the door way to saving up for the power amps...

Well after 25 years of playing with HiFi, I'm still happy they are offering me the best all round solution. Few others can tick as many boxes, and when you spend this much, you want as many boxes ticked as possible !!!

I do use Dynaudio based speakers in the main room. The L+R+C are my own creation driven actively.....and out perform Akurate 242's at 6K
