Burmester 232 vs mono blocks in the same price range ange

We have Kanta 3s in our home theatre and while they are nice speakers they are definitely the weak link in your excellent system. I second upgradIng them. I own Rockport speakers and highly recommend them. They are universally regarded as one of the best speakers made. Start with the Avior ii and go up from there 

@ronboco Wow. They're almost $40K. So speakers should ideally be as or more expensive than the amplifier?

@mramaswamy11 

Not necessarily. You can definitely get good synergy with much lower cost speakers and I’m sure your kantas sound great but at the level you are talking about high end speakers are usually part of the equation. 

People have different ideas about these things, but I think speakers are the most important piece by a fairly wide margin. I think you are a lot more likely to get 80 to 90% of the performance of a great amp or dac  for less money than would be the case with great speakers

some people think amplification or source is more important but for me it’s speakers

Also it will be very important to make sure your room in in order to get the best performance out of your gear
