If you want to get into this hobby become an acoustic nerd. Take measurements in the room. Adjust speakers. Build acoustic treatments or buy them. A 500$ pair of cables is not going to do what a 500$ acoustic treatment will do. Do try tube gear!You do not need to spend thousands more on audio equipment. If you can use the basement as a dedicated audio room I suggest building large open baffle speakers. Have your redneck buddy bring some power tools and a sixer of malt liquor and cut you a hole in some shabby plywood. Add a full ranger driver with suitable Q for the baffle. Now drill it, tack the driver to the board, running a modest 5watt DIY kit from Bottle head. Scratch yer head and say "Dang them simple acoustic principles sound better than my fancy gear!"
