Really Inexpensive Systems That Sounded Great?
I think there is a big difference between "cheap" and inexpensive. I have blown money on "cheap" cables and immediately regretted it when my ears started bleeding from the brightness in my digital components. I also don’t mean "bargains" like the time I scored $2000 speakers for $200 on Craigslist, that is basically luck.
I am talking about inexpensive (less than $1500) for a system that sounded really great to you.
I fell into a whole house audio system from DTS Play-Fi because I wanted to try and compare different brands. I picked up Play-Fi amps, preamps and active speakers made by Polk, Paradigm, Klipsch, Onkyo and DefTech all for less than $1000 a pop. For what it is, whole house audio/casual listening it sounds great.
What inexpensive great sounding systems have you tried?

Welcome to the forum @syd7865 , how do you like the shitt tube pre? |
My system consists of a Rotel RCD 971, Muzishare X7 with upgraded Jupiter Copper Foil Caps, modified ProAc 1mkii speakers (more like DIY speakers), Van den hul D102 mkiii cables, Linn k400 speaker cables and Shunyata Venom 3 power cables. Many of them were bought used and total system cost me about $3,000. I have had this system for the longest time and up till this point don’t have an upgrade itch.
Oh. And a few DIY acoustic panels that cost me a couple hundred bucks. Happy listening! |
