A quality sound system is an investment that you continue to use for 30+ years. A quality speaker will sound good for decades before it finally fails, so I have no problem investing in a system that costs $3k. In reality, the speakers I bought were on closeout because the company was moving on to the next model so I picked mine up for over $1k off normal retail with the full manufacturer guarantee and everything.
Oh, and what I bought is considered medium range quality. If you move to higher quality you can spend over $1.2k per main speaker, and over 2k for a sub-woofer.

This. If you buy quality speakers, they will do for a looong time. $3k isn't that much but it is a good start. :)

I have had my small system in my room for 6-7 years, and there is nothing wrong with the speakers that came with it... the whole lot was just under £100.
Ok so I have a small room, I think the wattage for the combined 2 speakers (zomg only 2!) is probably less than 30.
In the living room we have had a bigger system for about 10 years, speakers still fine, I believe it was about £200 when we got it, the only thing that went wrong is my dad nicked one of the speaker wires when putting in a new carpet, so it started cutting out, but we shortened the wire and it is fine again.
I believe they are about 60Watts each.... and it sounds good.
And you can't say I have bad ears, I went to see Star Trek at the cinema a couple of days ago, and I could hear they turned the cinema speakers up too loud as there was a buzz in the explosion sequences.

Dude.. seriously. If your speaker set is advertised by "watts" then it sucks. It is that simple. :D People have different standards for their speakers/amps. :P
