There is no formula, period. Figure out what works for you. It might be a brand new $200,000 horn speaker system with $1500 used integrated. On the other hand, you might find unbelievable results with $500 worth of used Spicas with a new Ongaku. Many world class musicians find their needs met by very modest gear and might not even know what brand of speakers they have.
Making pronouncements about what fraction of your available funds must be applied to the speaker purchase, reveals a naivete you should prefer to conceal.
I think it is incredible that a thread based upon such a foolish premise has survived this long. Such reflects badly on us as a group.
