Which is more important?


I would like to take my system to the next level. What ever that may be. It is my understanding that any component can influence the sound as much as any other. Being economicaly challenged, upgrades are few and far between. Therefore my experience with new equipment in my system is limited. Plus, being in the military my listening room is always changing. Reviews are no help as preamps, cables, IC, and everything else seem to take a back seat to amps and speakers. Without rebuilding a house that belongs to the U.S. tax payers. Louis

I lived in a city that had an army base once and the local pawnshops usually had good selections of audio equipment. When someone was transferred out,they sold their stuff that would then get bought by guys(and women) who transferred in.

It seems to me that with the mobility needed to serve in the military and what you said about different listening rooms,using the shops and audiogon make sense.

You can figure what you want,what you can afford,and put together a temporary system-knowing it will be for sale in a couple/three years.
