What is the current retail cost of your reference system?


It would be interesting to share this as I am not sure some of us understand how decisions are made within the framework of cost and resolution. Please avoid used prices as that muddys the water significantly. Also cabling costs would be revealing as well if willing to share.

Current cost is $1,000,000

Cable cost is $250,000

Next question, what should I upgrade next 🤔

I have an extra million lying around and I’m thinking about a new amp, suggestions?

PS- The OP question makes no sense so neither does my answer.

 

@jpwarren58 , I realize you are a newbie, not trying to be harsh but this question is beyond vague. Are you looking to start a build or what?

About $18000 for mine with about $800 in cabling.

Again this is current retail. Virtually everything I own is used.

 

The question makes perfect sense as most folks own Sonos, Bose. Home theater, receivers. In that context discussions of cables and even speakers have little relevance.

Most folks who would be replying to your post are members who typically use those products as a secondary system, not reference.

If you can share what you are trying to achieve with your system specifically it would be easier to answer. Do you just need to set a budget for a build or to buy something?
