Is there a magic formula for spending on components in a system


Hello to all...

I'm looking for opinions on the magic formula for purchasing components base on catergories:

Source or sources

Control

Amplification

Sound Transmission

Interconnection and Cabling

Setup and storage

Thoughts? Opinions? Your system "equation" ?

PS: which of the above is the most important block in the wall?

I found the percentages outlined by Robert Harley in this book to be a useful starting point.

And I learned a lot of other useful information as well.
