$30K DAC in a $70K system - wise or ridiculous?

Revrob knows of what he speaks. Speakers hands down determine the overall presentation of a system (that and a good room). So yeah, 30G on a DAC in a 70G system is folly. 30G on speakers? I can get behind that.

I appreciate the answers and different points of view.  Thank you all for your input. 

Just to follow up. I looked up your speakers, nice. If it was me I spent the money on a upgrading to a pair of speakers where I don't need any subs, upgrade my CD player, a good DAC and add some vinyl - turntable / preamp for that $30k.

I thinking if you are going to invest just $30k just into a DAC why not put it into upgrading your entire system. Sell your current gear plus the $30k and you would have a KILLER system. IMHO. 

utterly ridiculous IMO, considering you told us about your gear but NOTHING about the room in which it resides.

if I had a nickel for every six figure system in a fifty cent room, hopefully yours is not one of them !

Seriously, unless your room is truly optimized for your speakers why would you even think of spending 30k on a DAC ???

I can only concur....
