My 2 cents:
the order of importance in terms of contribution to enjoyable sound
is:
{most important first}1) the inherent sound of the recording 2) the room and its treatments 3) the speakers 4) the time of day and my frame of mind 5) the rest of the playback chain (transport, amps, dacs, power conditioning, cables, etc) 6) the quality of Burgundy/Malt available (this interacts with #4) This is why I've spent little money on equipment in the last 5-6 years and lots on finding good recordings of music I like... -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
