For those of you who had spent over hundred thousand dollars for your sound system.


Do you think, in retrospect, that you could have gotten better sound quality out of your sound system with much less money spend. Do you have any regrets for spending huge amount of $$$? If you can start all over again, what would be different this time around? Let’s talk about electronics only and not room improvement for now. I know they go together, but the subject becomes very broad - assume your room is near perfect for sound reproduction.

P.S. Mike Levine, please don't shy away from the subject.

@charles1dad ---good comment regarding the sound of my Viking Acoustic speakers and Canary Audio Grand Reference 300B Mono amps.  Aren't we all guilty of wondering if there is something better out there?  Are we ever totally satisfied with our system?  I really want to be but the curiosity of what if will always prevail.  LOL

BTW if you want to hear my system, check out YouTube under Viking Acoustic Grande Voix Speakers.  

I have no regrets about the cost of my system valued at around $150k.  I worked my whole life to attain this level of system.  I regret listening to dealers who talked me into buying products that are not easy to sell if I want to try something else.  I have very large 300B mono amps that sound great.  However, I would like to try something else.  I do not believe in collecting equipment.  I sell components before buying new components.  In this case, my amps will be very hard to sell due to price and lack of brand recognition.  In that regard, I have made some mistakes in my journey but it is still pretty damn good.  My wife just keeps asking me....is this it?  I smile and say probably not.  

I think it would be a blast to start over.  I would keep my Lampi Horizon and Lucas Audio MS but get different Amps and Speakers.
