Amp being the most important part of the system

I replied to your post at the bottom but you may have missed it. I was wondering what you used for your source? Turntable, CD Player, Music Server, Reel to Reel etc and what are your thoughts on the importance of the front end relative to the amp, preamp and speakers and wire? Also, do you get hung up on cheap vinyl, versus 180g vinyl versus 200g vinyl? I got out of vinyl as it was a rabbit hole....Down to cleaning solutions....I can't remember what source you used and where you favored SACD to redbook or where you are on the different digital formats and which sounds better? Also, what DAC topography do you favor and what chips sound best? Not a debate....just wondering how you felt about these things and whether you think they are important?
