Why not work on the room instead? Keep the current system as it is already in the superlatives but get an engineer to design the best sounding room.

I know you have already treated your current rooms but i'm sure there is more to do there.

+1 on this from me. This is what I would do if I had the right room, funds, and associated gear!

My vote is for the Genesis G1.2/ Prime loudspeakers with your choice of electronics. The big Burmesters are good.

Whatever you choose to do, Ivan, it is always a privilege to be able to listen to these wonderful systems most of us can never afford with a friend in an intimate atmosphere.

Besides keeping your property snow free all winter, what else does it do?

My point... er, I forgot...

Oh, except these would be $250K and up speakers.

The Accuphase A-250 amps look great.
