Order of importance and budget percentages

I’m redesigning my system again…. About to sell all cables and some gear to make a large upgrade

from really knowledgeable people please in a 50k or 100k MSRP system for example….

How would you spend your cable budget proportional to speaker, interconnects, power and Ethernet?

I don’t believe in fixed percentage budgets, you buy what you need, no more no less. For example if you bought Magnepan 30s you would have tons of money left over for the other gear.

I guess you can take a power cord and start building a system around it about the same way.
