I have had a few streamers pass through my system, ranging in price from $100 to about $1200. I have a natural sympathy with the premise of the OP, but I have to comment that the cheaper streamers can’t hold a candle to their more expensive brethren. The cheaper ones have sounded thin and harsh and opaque in the midrange.
I don’t know where the point of diminishing returns is. My prejudice is that a streamer costing $15K isn’t going to give me 10 times the pleasure of what I have now, but I have neither the funds or the inclination to investigate.
And, of course, the rest of the system matters. If the system isn’t that good then it is hard to grade the difference between sources
