#2 Source first, where the signal to the rest of your system begins.
But whatever your system, it could be helpful to the rest of us for you to list it. If nothing more than for curiosity’s sake.
What does your Virtual System page say about you?
I was browsing through virtual systems today, and noticed three major categories:
- People who list their components from speakers to source(s)
- People who list their components from source(s) to speakers
- People who appear to have a hodgepodge of equipment listed
I would hypothesize that people in group #1 belong to the "speakers first" school of system design, and people in group #2 are "source first".
Are the people in group #3 indifferent? Disorganized? Or listed their equipment in either "speakers first" or "source first" order initially, but as their systems evolved, removed things they sold and then tacked new acquisitions to the end of the list?
If you find yourself groups 1 or 2, can you confirm or refute the hypothesis?
If you are in group 3, what's your methodology? Did your system evolve over time? Or is the listing order just not important to you?
Not sure there are any deep psychological implications, but I was just curious.
(Yes, I know I don't have a virtual system listed. I am currently moving too frequently to get a setup I'm not embarrassed to photograph; I will add a virtual system listing hopefully near the end of this year)

Mine says nothing which means I need to quit being lazy, take pictures, and actually add it to the site! Thinking through the original question I would start from source through speakers in the reproduction chain but to me my speakers, in my room, are the most critical. Well, other than the room itself. |
@ghdprentice I will do so this weekend. Thanks for the push. |
