If Santa Claus exists, and you may buy audio gear with it, what would you choose?

Think in my case I would have upgraded my streamer.
 
I’d probably upgrade the main speakers or amp rather than put the whole amount into a streamer. A better streamer is nice, but I’d want the biggest improvement to come from the part of the system I’m actually listening to. If the rest of the setup is already sorted, though, then a high-end streamer would be pretty tempting.

If I hadn't already got one, I'd spend that on a NAD M33. Brilliant piece of kit, fully compatible with speakers in the 30+K price range.

Always a fun exercise. I might would do room treatments as well. Currently building some DIY Aleph J mono-blocks, and expecting new speakers later this month (crosses fingers).
 
I would love to see what room treatments for my lousy 45 degree placement with a hallway behind one speaker would do.

Best bang for your buck:
1. Spend less than $1k to purchase all your electronics/cables.
2. Spend the rest on speakers that YOU like.
