Just for curiosity, what does everyone feel is the most important component in THEIR system?

1. Room 2. Speakers 3. player (dvd, sacd, dvd-a etc) 4. reciever (or pre/amp) 5. amp 6. speaker cables All in that order. I've heard a *lot* of difference in how a "player" modifies the sound, therefore, I'll give it No. 3 in importance. My most important audio is listed. For video, well, TV is the most

How about interconnects? :p
That list looks pretty good to me too. I go back and forth with 3 & 4 though. I don't have as much experience with the separate units.

I think the music you choose or the movies you watch. A bad mixing job can spoil even the most high $$$ system. Just my .02

Speakers have been and always will be your most important component followed by the pre-amp/amplifier and then your sources.
One of my room mates in college had a Technics rack system with a 120 watt integrated amplifier. With the stock speakers I thought it sounded like crap. He than threw on a pair of Boston Acoustics T series towers and I have to admit it sounded decent. The only give aways were if you listened close enough between songs and low level passages of music, you could here a low level hiss, an audible click through the speakers when you turned the volume up or down and the soundstage was a little flat, or one dimensional.

so you feel that speakers are the most important component in YOUR system...
note the first post, said THEIR, not in every...
meaning, depending on your use, different components will hold different values. some of us listen to mostly/all music, while others mainly movies/tv...

To me the component most people thinks is the most important component it's TV o projector in a HT and speakers in an audio only system.
