Fred made a comment below which is quite worthy of further elucidation. I agree that when using may be $500 in speaker components one might not worry about it, and just enjoy the exercise....
But that's only if one has $500 to throw away. If one has saved $500 for a year to get it on with a speaker design or $1200 over several years then that is as big a deal for that person as spending $10,000 is for someone else. In my case I had a lot of expenses, including $20K+ college bills, three cars costs, health care etc, and squeezing out $1200 for a speaker system over several years on mostly just one salary and a small part time salary from my wife was hard. So for me the $1200 was as big a deal as the $10K was for someone else.
I sort of know how I looked at compatibility between speaker components, but I'm not sure whether there is some protocol for how this is done.
Can anyone explain? Wayne? Fred? Other people who build multiple speakers systems rather than just two or three over a decades?
