NOT... 
Thanks all again for this wonderful year on Head-fi. I won't be on Head-fi as much in 2012. Time for me to move on to something more important and really start to enjoy music, not gear. You guys brought me to what I am now listening to (Rega Saturn -> Liquid Fire -> LCD3) and I am really really grateful. As mentioned in another thread, many commented that there is no "end-game" rig and it may be different for every one, and also expensive gear doesn't mean the same end game to everyone.
But - if there were such gear in existence - which there isn't - which could really be considered end-game - I suspect my systems (after the Realiser and BHSE have arrived) are pretty close. But then again, it is a result of the experience I have learnt from Head-fi - I would like to thank a lot of users but just in case I forget anyone I would just mention the "big names" - Jude, Skylab, Spritzer, Tyll, Currawong, Warp08, Innerspace, Jian. Some of the above I never had direct conversation with but nevertheless inspired me.
Also, a big thank you for all the great manufacturers out there - Stax (wish you luck after the acquisition), Audeze ('nuff said I purchased two of your headphones in one year), Norse (Trevor), Cavalli (Dr. Alex Cavalli), ALO Audio (you guys should really check out the 16-Reference although I know the number sounds ridiculous), Ray Samuels, Fostex, Meier, iBasso, Leben, Esoteric, Rega, Tara Labs, Madison Audio Lab, Siltech, Isotek (the last four are cable makers).
Anyway, speaker rig upgrade will come after my goal next year. Right now I am happy going around with the Realiser to "copy" high end speaker systems from showrooms and friends.
:)
Merry Christmas!!
