Amps or Speakers which one to upgrade next

If you like the sound you have now but want to make it even better, most likely it is a much better amp and source that you want. But I would probably start with tube rolling and trying other cables. Rogue is a value brand, it is not high end.

Well, upgrading both might be better, theoretically, but the question is would $7k plus the value of what he has now be enough for a jump ?

The OP's question is very legitimate and something, I believe, almost each of us faces from time to time. If I had $7k to upgrade amps/speakers I would think long and hard. In my case, I would probably think that this amount is not enough to get me great speakers so I would most likely either wait longer and save up or go ahead with the amp and maybe speaker cables upgrade. $7k is good money for an amp, not so good for speakers.

He knows that he doesn't know or pretends to sound like that. Either is fine with me.
