HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH TO SPEND ON A SYSTEM? IF YOU GET THE SOUND DOES IT MATTER?

totally relative here, no rule of thumb, especially if you buy stuff with good resale value...if it makes you happy and you can afford it...same with houses, cars, watches, boats, everything we don't actually need...

we only live one time if you love music and a great system gets you there then a great system is a wise decision.

Our guidance in working with an audio system is to understand that a great sounding system requires careful matching of components, accessories along with room matching, and system tuning.

this means that components are chosen that compliment each other sonically

a huge mistake is assuming that all matching components will create sonic  nirvana, while many times you can get better results by carefully mixing and matching components from different manufacturers to offset strengths and weaknesses.

So if component A is very transparent maybe adding a different component which has a bit more coloration may help create a sound which is more engaging the by adding more components that sound exactly the same way.

No idea. It seems never ending….
