Where to invest


I am going to post this on the amp page and the speaker page.
I have Merlin VSM MME with upgraded BAM powered by a modified Jolida 502.
It is birthday present time.
Should I invest the money in upgrading the amp-?Rogue cronus magnum or sending the speakers back to Bobby to upgrade to the latest version of the speakers?

I've never heard your amp but I would GUESS that upgrades there would be more bang for buck than the speaker upgrades. I had the speakers upgraded to lead-free MME and they are worthwhile but they are evolutionary, not revolutionary. What would your total budget (cash on hand plus realistic amp sales value) be?

You're spending the money...not investing it. Any money spent in audio is gone forever. It may be money well spent, but never an investmaent. Every 20 years or so a product comes along that will sell for more that its purchase price...in 20 years or more.
