Did a satisfaction threshold exist under 1000 bucks ?

Is there a minimal/optimal subjective and also objective threshold of minimal satisfaction ?

 

If so, many upgrade chasing may seems like a dog chasing his tail....😁

 

I just live through one of this upgrading  event...

 

My system is very good, and when i tried to upgrade it , it was more a curiosity about the new amplifier than a real need...

 

But keep in mind that my system is 700 bucks for all components... My upgrade trying cost 1000 bucks...😁

 

Anyway i myself think that there is objective acoustic factors that define good sound, and when these factors are there on this threshold line , most upgrade are a change not always for the better  not an improvement...

 

Am i alone who live throught this ? am i alone to be satisfied by under 1000 bucks system, headphone and speakers dac and amplifier included ?😁

 

For sure i listen alone... Many had wife and friends listening with them... This implicate costlier system able to accomodate a room , not headphone or small speakers for one in an acoustic corner for one ...

Anyway am i alone in acoustic bliss with under 1000 bucks system ?
