Spend $30000 on speakers and $70000 on the rest.
no budget for cables?
@grislybutter (do you miss being called "Brown Bear"?), I suppose one could interpret that as 30k for the speakers (wow, I wish I could do that!) and then "the rest" would entail all of the electronics, speaker cables, interconnect cables, fuses, power cords, and all else assorted what-have-you one might deem necessary that is in front of the speakers. One might even include room treatments as part of "the rest," although in the context of this thread, I realize that was not part of the topic. But you know how these threads wander. (I am going to go on record as saying I have personally never tried any exotic fuses, but I am curious.)
