Yes I am, but I was also delighted with my first hi-end system which I owned for 10 years and was quite modest in comparison. What I found to be most important in an audio system from a musical satisfaction perspective is
#1 a good room and
#2 synergy of components.
It isn't necessarily the price as how they work together. Also I am not much interested in changing for change sake or to have something new. This is the hobby part of being an audiophile that I have no interest in cause I don't have the time and I have other interests more important. What is of great interest is fine tuning and maximizing a system I am happy with and adding music. From my point of view the only reason to change is to move to something better to my ears, not different.
