Windows for Telepaths
...You open the box labeled "Windows TP", carefully extracting the pouch labeled "License Agreement".

Since we're dreaming, I'd like an Edirol UA-101 (or FA-101) Computer Recording Interface.
Ten channels of 24-bit audio goodness. It doesn't get much better than this.
A lot of it is determined by what speakers you're using. Different types/brands/sizes have different physics behind them.
