I have a bit of fun by trying it on my least expensive system and then working upwards towards my best equipment.What seems pretty darn good on cheaper equipment which I think I may be satisfied with generally gets totally trounced as I work my way up.
There may be a diminishing return for cost (ie. something may not sound twice as good for double the price) and it would be up to an individual to try to get the best bang for their buck.I don't think it really matters which way one chooses to try the different equipment so long as they do so and not just settle for the one piece they have auditioned. Unfortunately, most hi-fi dealers in my area only carry so much. I'll never get the opportunity to audition what is most recommended in a specific price range for a piece of equipment.
