Here are the percentages I wound up with, factoring in the cost of NOS tubes and a relatively reasonable power setup (cables, surge bar, etc.).
Because I sought out deals on used and open box items, some final percentages here might be different than they would have been if I had paid MSRP.
37% Speakers (main and 1 sub)
33% Tube Amplification including NOS Tubes
16% Sources (CD transport, Streamer, DAC, tube for DAC)
14% Cables/interconnects/power
