How much do you have to spend?

@faustuss    We all have a different opinion of what "Amazing" sound quality is. As Audiophiles we need to accept all levels of HEA systems whether it's dictated by choice or finances.

What! Is this a lesson in moral fortitude?

I’m a KEF fan. Years ago I demoed the pre-Meta KEF LS50 vs KEF R700 at an high-end audio store. Both speakers sounded similar but the R700 reached notably lower bass. I have a LS50 with upgrades.

If I had both the OP’s system and 10k to spend, I’d consider upgrade to KEF floorstander like the R7 Meta AND use the rest to upgrade electronics.

The answer is akin to a Supreme Court justice’s comment on pornography. I know it when I hear it. 

Due to time, I had to do the Florida show in 3.5 hours.  So I had to move fairly quick and really only had time in each room for first impressions.  I started at the 100K rooms and worked my way down with a 350K room worked in the middle.  The drop off from $100k to $30k rooms was substantial.  Similarly, a noticeable difference between 30K and 10K.  I did not hear a large enough difference from 100K up to 350K to justify the price.  So I would say 100K.  There were alot of Active speakers on display which save on cables, etc.  Take those out and speakers were 50% of the cost.  Streamer 15 to 20 %.  Amplification/preamp 30 to 35%.
