Amplifier is the most important component after the speakers. At least 50% of the cost of the speakers should be invested in an amplifier and you have to not only look at cost - matching amp to speakers is critical. Rarely any other component will make as much difference as a carefully matched high quality amp.
??? How Much Would You Spend ???
I’m curious about something...Lets say your going to build a system for a smallish room...For a hundred years,the recommendation is choose speakers first,then build around them...
So you fall completely under the spell of a pair of speakers with a $12,500.00 MSRP...What is the minimum amount you would spend just for your amplification with no eye towards any future upgrade?
Thanks for your participation,it is appreciated..
