What’s the Sweet Spot price point wise in your audio journey?


I ask the question because there are so much gear at vastly different price points.  My sweet spot is the 15-30k range. That’s where my speakers, amp, and Dac for the most part sets. There are good things below the prices but there is synergy and  price/performance when purchasing audio. For some folks it’s the 5-15 range. It just depends on what you budget is you can fund great stuff all over Audio. Thoughts! No negativity. Just real answers.

There is no diminishing returns "point"...

It is a variable surface defined by three factors for everyone : price/budget, design quality and innovations, subjective evaluation ability and knowledge , and a ratio defining the surface between these three factors which differ for each one of us...

 

 

At the risk of being labeled a braggart, I actually have a summer system and a winter system.  I've just updated my winter system as my Bose Ipod Docking Station has died.  But I was able to replace it with this beauty for $30 CDN.  I run it with Spotify.  They gave me 4 months for free and $12 after that, with the ability to cancel any time.  So it's ad free music all winter for $12. 😁  Plus, this baby has flashing LED lights when we're in the mood.  I challenge anyone to undercut me on the cost of their system. 🤣

yes

I am shamed to be beaten indeed...

Congratulation for your system....

I have right around $30K invested in my system. It's as much as I can afford to spend on it. I'd love to spend more, but I've reached my limit!

My sweet spot is the 15-30k range
