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.

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!

I have written this statement before but it’s applicable here.

”We see what is in back of our eyes not what is in front of them” . The lesson is simple. We like what our mind has told us, not anything beyond that. Most people here will ask questions about a, b or c component and which one they should buy. Most of the time they are seeking justification for what their mind has already chosen. So this is a big factor but also the mind decides that a component that costs $30k must sound better than one that cost $15k. Illogical and again, what our mind tells us. Furthermore, the component that costs more must sound better and consequently will give us more listening pleasure. Another illogical fallacy.
