Amp first approach to build a system. Anyone did it ?

As opposed to classical speakers first or source first.

I didn't do it, but if I started today I would keep the amp I have and probably replace everything else.

As for the room, well, yeah, unless you move frequently. jl35, that's a good point. In fact, I was thinking of upgrading speakers first soon but couldn't resist getting VAC amp when I saw it. So now it's amp first and speakers later for me.
