The top model is called SME 30-12A. Here we have a system of 4 millions worth of equipments, excluding the main stereo speakers, and the owner is using this SME TT as analogue source. Pls note the front FM acoustics 268 + 1811 amps alone would cost you 1.7 million HKD !!!!!
Please remember, HiFi equipments alone can only account for at most 1/3 of the overall sound quality. The other 2/3 is all about room acoustic, speaker placement, equipment synergy and mechanical isolation. So probably you have oversimplified by just saying A+B=C :)
