If no one here tells me what to get, then I'll figure it out and report back in case there are any concerns. I'll definitely be getting basic copper, but I don't want to screw up in such a way that arnyk, etc will point out where something was botched.

Sure, the speakers play the biggest role, but in my experience the electronics have a meaningful impact. It has also been my experience that cables make a difference in that aspect, not to mention many others. My speakers have a pretty good reputation, which I can't prove, but I'm confident that their performance closely represents the discounted price (from SRP) that typical informed audiophiles pay.

Focus of the jazz/rock is around 50s-90s and it will take a few years to fill that out. I have only a tiny percent of typical audiophile recordings and I rarely if ever have time or inclination to give them a spin. I am a music first audiophile with an emphasis on mastering quality.
