Whats more important? Speaker or the Amp


I am curious to hear what people have to say about the subject. Feel free to vent.

It's all personal preference.

I'm going to argue till I'm blue in the face that speakers are the most important. Bar none. Dave Wilson agrees with me.
Dave Wilson builds speakers, useless support for your argument. Linn builds them all and Igor says source first. I'm with Newbee.
To what end? If it's a purchasing priority, I would first go with the best amplification I could afford and upgrade speakers as funds permit. To me, if I buy a top notch speaker and it resolves so well that it shows the short-comings of cheap amplification, it would be a miserable listening experience as I await better equipment. That's the only reason I would ponder this question in the first place. Just my 2 pesos.
Your whole system - source to speakers - is like a chain. Its strength is ONLY has strong as the weakest link; no matter which link (e.g. CD Player, cables, linesource, etc.)
