List your System Ingredients: Listed most to least expensive, by list price or price paid


How did you proportion your system spending? You can choose to list by component name or type, and by the the price you actually paid new or used, OR by the original full retail price. Just be consistent. 

For example, by price paid mine would be-

Millercarbon: Tone arm, speakers, phono stage, motor, cartridge, turntable, Cones (rack, Shelf, etc), speaker cable, power cords, room treatment and tweaks, amp, interconnect.

But by full retail price when new mine would be:

Millercarbon: Speakers, speaker cables, tone arm, Cones (rack, Shelf, etc), phono stage, power cords, cartridge, motor, interconnect,  amp, room treatment and tweaks (fuses, ECT, HFT, etc).

And the point of this?

Not sure you will find any meaningfultrends here.
If folks had all provided $ or percentages you certainly could have teased out data and trends. But they didn’t.

It would have been interesting to see which components the most money was spent on, and how many folks spent significant amounts on cables. 

Oh well.
