I agree with Jonathan it really depends who you are and where you are in life, but here is how I 'limit' things:
Digital source-$10k
Preamp-15k
Amp-10k
speakers-25k
cables:
-speaker-3k
-Interconnects-2k/per pair
-Powercables-1.5k ea.
Room treatment-4k
Now all I have to do is find my rubber check to order all of this stuff! But that is the most I would like to spend on gear, I would rather concentrate on having loads more software with a system of the caliber, I am about half way to my limit, so in a few more years we'll be there! Just need more time, after all I have only been into this for 2.5 years. Cheers,
Tim
