How do you determine how much to spend on speakers


Hello all,

I am just starting out in this HI-FI stuff and have a pretty modest budget (prospectively about 5K) for all. Any suggestions as to how funds should be distributed. At this stage, I have no interest in any analog components. Most notably, whether or not it is favorable to splurge on speakers and settle for less expensive components and upgrade later, or set a target price range and stick to it.

Thanks

People amaze me with their opinions. But here's mine for what it's worth. FIRST, figure out what type of music you like. Rock, R&B, pop, rap, clasical, jazz....THEN you can pick the best components for $5k. Generally I perfer the sound of a tube system (I have one now). But everyone is different....but the catch 22 is how do you know without listening to each?

You check my FB and if you want my opinion, you talk to me and tell me what type of music you like, your room size & detailed configuration and we'll go from there.

Regards,
Steve
