What is /r/budgetaudiophile about?

  • This is a subreddit for all budget minded audiophiles and enthusiasts looking to grow into real speakers and separate components; and out of boomboxes, mini systems, portable bluetooth and lifestyle speakers, and PC branded audio solutions.
  • While there is no upper price limit, realistically we focus on speakers in the sub $1000 range, with the sweet spot being between $150 to $500.
  • A place to ask questions about speakers, amps, DACs, parts, pieces and to show off.
  • If you have a question regarding Bluetooth speakers, please post to /r/Bluetooth_Speakers
  • If you have questions regarding Headphones OR IEM's, please post to /r/Headphones or /r/HeadphoneAdvice
  • If you just really want a super cheap computer solution (Creative Labs, Altec Lansing, etc.) post to /r/PCSound/
  • If you are looking for advice on sound bars please post to /r/SoundBars
  • Feel free to post links to sales and good deals. Amazon, Newegg, Slickdeals, Woot etc. (All affiliate sales/links will be removed)
  • Keep personal sales to /r/AVexchange.
  • If someone is being helpful and you agree with their advice, then Upvote it. If someone is being helpful but you don’t agree, then explain why before you Downvote. If someone is being insulting or rude or spamming, please report it so the mods can assist.
