How do you determine how much to spend on speakers
I have never understood the relevance of the phrase "garbage in, garbage out" in these types of discussions. If a $1000 to $1500 integrated amp is producing "garbage out", then you were ripped off. The THD on a Yamaha a-s1000 integrated, which sel... 
MERRY CHRISTMAS

Vintage speakers from the 70's and 80's
I had a pair of JBL L112s that I bought new in 1981. I just sold them last year. The guy that bought them drove from Phoenix City Alabama to Houston to pick them up. I still have an extra pair of tweeters for those speakers.
