Well there are quality components and there are "too much money components" I always opt for the best quality because I don`t have too much money
Stuff like dbane883 have done here is right on the money for your own hi-fi experience
But buying shielded power cables and stuff like that for $1200 a pop is wasted money in my book. And much other stuff like crazy expensive HDMI cables and the like. Then you are just paying because it is a status thing.
