How much do you have to spend?


To acquire a system after which spending additional $ would yield diminishing or marginal returns? How would you apportion the $ you spend to the various components needed?

You're asking people who would never have that much money to spend in the first place!

A perfectly satisfying HiFi system can be assembled for $5K or less by hunting for gear on the secondhand market. I stopped buying new a long time ago. 

5 grand total in a regular sized room

2.5 on speakers and sub

1.5 in integrated amp with streaming

1.0 on miscellaneous

used gear of course
