50% speakers?
40% preamplifier/source/amplifier?
10% cables, stereo bench, acoustics, etc?
Is that a good starting point? Thanks

Sounds about right assuming a reasonable budget. If you are low budget it takes at least a certain amount to get you reasonable components so they may take a larger percent of your budget. But even at say $3,000 you should be spending half on speakers. AND, when you get the bug to upgrade, consider upgrading your speakers first.
And don’t forget that you can gain a huge amount of improvement with room treatment.
