Let's just allow ourselves some gratuitous (hifi) fantasy. It's cheap.
You have just won the lottery jackpot. (Or a researcher has found you are the sole living rightful heir to a fortune left by a Rothschild you never even knew you were related to!)
You have bought the new house with the dedicated listening room (in the converted barn?) all ready and waiting to install a wonderful new system.
So what are you going to get?
I now 'have' my rebuilt EMT broadcast turntable with 12" Ortofon RS-309-D tonearm and Ortofon SPU Royal GM MkII cartridge, and a whole raft of Audio Research valve amp/phono-stage gear, Tannoy Westminster Royal SE speakers, dCS Scarlatti DAC and upsampler, Sooloos music server.....
What are you 'buying'?
