Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component?
A very informative fellow on youtube reviews high end audio gear. He pays an insane amount of money on ampifiers, speakers and digital sources. He tells you what he thinks about quality, price, customer service and performance on such brands as Magico, Boulder, Wilson Audio and many others.
So here is the question. What are YOU willing to pay for a pair of speakers? An amplifier? A DAC or turntable setup? I am interested in what you WOULD PAY, not what you have paid in the past.
For me, I cannot see myself paying over $5K on speakers and likely not more that $3K on any other component.... even if I had the kind of money Elon Musk has. Am I crazy in saying that?

@2psyop - Not at all. Not only are there some great brands in that price range like Monitor Audio, or stretching it, Revel, I think that a lot of these super speakers are made for homes the likes of which I’ll never see. What point is there in buying a Wilson Alexandria for my tiny listening room?? 🤣 In my space, for my listening, I am sure I can get every bit as "good" a sound for far less. I don't know if any of you would like my stereo, but damn if it doesn't sound better than any hotel room I've been to. |
@deadhead1000 , totally agree with your sentiment here. The system needs to make sense all around for price and synergy. But the way my fav years are 1973 and 1974. Can't wait for the latest box set to come out |
@jonwolfpell hookers? seriously? That's pretty dark. |
