Headphones! I've recently learned that headphones are the most cost effective way to enjoy the audiophile experience. They even make headphone specific amplifiers. You could probably spend around 300 dollars on a good headphone set up that would cost you in the 1000's speakers-wise.
And honestly I'm surprised it took me this long to realize just how awesome musoc sounds in them, all while not pissing off wife with speakers blaring in the basement.
What headphones are you looking at? Some open backs will be really nice at that price point if you don't mind about the sound leaking out.
Funny you should mention that. I picked up the Sennheiser HD6XX. Very good so far.
I've heard very good things about those, I use HD560s myself
