Oppo 203 at an absurd premium to retail. And none too soon - the prices have gotten only worse!

JDS Labs Atom directly because of ASR. Topping DX3Pro I bought used from a friend after checking review (and comments) here and confirming my hands on experience with it. And on the other side of the question, I would NOT have bought the Meier Corda Jazz if the review had been here at the time, though I have been happy with it for the most part.

When I was moderating ASR I spent so long on the loo doing it I had to purchase more comfortable seating.

Like these ?

It's a very temporary response that will disappear in 59 minutes ...

Nothing yet, but I have confirmed that recent purchases were quality choices. Also found out that my Marantz AV-7705 is an engineering hot mess.

My friend's Denon AVR-X3600H, solely because of the thread here. If he ups that system to separates it will be stuff I cull from here.

Wow, I can see ASR has had a lot of influence on me the last few months:

Genelec 8010a - Desktop speakers from heaven but I did also get RME subwoofer 7040a
RME ADI-2 DAC fs - not just a DAC/Amp but an audio exploration tool.
Sennheiser HD800s - Glued to my head for the last two weeks; relief check put to good use.

Why did you keep the Audeze LCD-3 having rejected all else? Or perhaps you had them long enough and just got bored?
