Survey: HiFi System Priorities


I love surveys and thought this one would be fun.


Situation:

You have a friend who is ready to step-up from Spotify > SONOS to a real "HiFi" home system. They've read a lot of things, are a bit overwhelmed/confused, and want your advice. Please rank the impact of the various system factors. (Once I've collected a nice sample of responses, I will share results so we can argue about how wrong they are.)

Throw the list in a blender, feed it to a cow, come back the next day and guess what you got then? Right. Same as now. Only pure.

That’s funny. What’s your point? Priorities are BS? Nothing is more important than anything else?


The speaker system has been and always will be the most important determinant of sound quality! Next is the signal source. Electronics are a distant third!

what good is it to have quality speakers and then you don’t have enough money for good equipment?       have seen this done many times on here.......member has a budget and spends a good portion of it on speakers and then has very little for equipment.   then the person isn’t happy with the sound .
