After saving money and selling almost all of my personal possessions that aren't books, clothes, or my favorite CDs, I am looking at buying a new audio rig (look at my profile: i need it!
)
Here's what I am eyeing:
BP Jr sig w/mods ($350)
Sony 333ES ($400)
DIY Shark ICs ($130)
Melos SHA ($450)
and I will audition Sennheiser HD580s, beyer 770s, Grado RS1s, and Sony CD3ks with this system.
Are there any weaknesses in the system? Any recommended surrogate components?
Secondly, will the aforementioned rig sound better enough to justify the price compared to:
DIYCable.com power filter ($150)
Denon DCM370 ($110)
DIY magnet wire ICs ($10)
DBSE amp ($100)
I've heard the components of the high end system (not together), and I've heard real hi-fi. Basically what I am asking is:
Is the expensive system really worth the money?
I will listen for at least five hours per weekday (hooray for advanced placemnt classes giving ludicrous amounts of homework!), and more on weekends.
Thanks for any and all help.
