Based on my limited experience, I'll take a great amp/preamp and lower end speakers,
to complete a stereo system. I hooked up my Dartzeel to the JBL 4312d's and Stephen was right. They never sounded soooo good. Whether it's the Dart or Burmester on the Cornwalls or JBL's, they sound great with better front ends.
What are your preferences/experience? |

I think you first go with the speakers you like. You then make make sure that you pair the speakers with different amps until you get sound you are looking for.

I agree --- I think speakers have the biggest impact on the overall sonic presentation.

Jim, you are absolutely correct. You don't need the speakers that are the best, you need the ones that address your desires/listening prejudices the best.
