Most IMPORTANT Componant?

[mdabb]

I would have to say your speakers are the end result in terms of audio. You can have the best receiver in the world but if your speakers aren't exactly capable you have then voided the entire purpose of hi-fidelity.

I recently just upgraded speakers and I can tell you I am now hearing things in such clarity and detail I didn't even realize it was there. Speakers have a huge impact.

It is important to have nice components but how are you going to listen to them?


Your system is as great as your weakest link and that would include your room and the way you have your system set up.


Try some new speakers if you are in need of an upgrade fix. Especially if you already have nice equipment. Then again you might want to try tweaking your setup 1st....I.E. speaker placement and figuring out the acoustics of your room.

I have this book on order and it was highly recommended. Others may want to look into it as well.
