Bill,
As Matt said, you might only expect one recommendation posting to this list,
however most of the members here have more than one system including myself.
All the same my favourite system would still be Serge. As mentioned by
someone else my only question would be the filter. The beauty of the
mini-jack or 1/4 inch systems being the enormous variety of filters
available. Having said that, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the
Serge filters.

In my opinion, if you bought into another system first you would still
hanker after some Serge modules but you would be further from realising your
dream having spent money on another system. In other words I'd advise going
for the Serge straight off.

Yeah, it's a killer and PK gives good advice IMO. If you have limited funds
go for a custom panel choosing exactly the combination of modules most
useful to you.
My first panel included no oscillators because I knew I would have hours of
fun processing audio through it. When I saved up for another panel I filled
in some of the gaps and later still I purchased a TKB (second hand).

Of course both MOTM and Wiard have fantastic modules available but (as a few
people have mentioned) I think Serge (is it still STS?) offer a complete
package including many unusual modules which in themselves offer a myriad of
functions. The most impressive modules I own being the NTO, Wave Multiplier,
Resonant EQ, DSG and the TKB is outrageously good.
