This is very true.
I agree with most of what's been said... especially the advice to use your ears to choose equipment rather than reading specs with your eyes.
Another big piece of advice I have is to visit a true Hi-Fi specialist, and go there with an open mind. These people truly have a skill in matching equipment, and matching needs with your (monetary and space ) budget. Even as experienced as I am (audio engineer; and Hi-Fi pro since 1990), I still value the salespeople's opinions. They're in that position because they love music and hifi gear; and they literally listen to stuff all day everyday. They're usually all-too happy to "chef up" a great setup designed specifically around all the moving parts impacting the decision. If anyone from VA to ME wants advice on finding a good Hi-Fi specialist, PM me.
Last piece of advice is to buy as much KEF as possible.
