More money toward better speakers or a better DAC?


Speakers need quality content to play.  Great recordings sound very good on low end speakers.  Crappy recordings sound bad from great speakers.  Seems focus is well served on improving quality of incoming sound.  The Dac is a huge part of the equation.  
Are we all ‘cheaping’ out by not spending more for a better dac?

Speakers... All day.

DAC technology fools/tricks people into believing the more number crunching going on results in better sound. 
Don't drink the mainstream Kool-Aid.

Speakers first... And if you get efficient enough speakers, then that opens the door to single ended triode bliss.
Or whatever class of amplification tickles your fancy.  I'm just sayin.
