Done, really done!


The last component upgrade I did was in December 2015- 2 years ago and since then I’ve had zero interest in any component changes. I’m done, I’m really done! My system is excellent and there’s nothing I feel I can seriously upgrade that would be worth my while. What a terrific place to be in!

Well, those “last words” have held true for 2 years- in the equipment world that is a long time for many! 
jaybe, I feel the same way- I feel that with my X250.8 and XP20 I lack for nothing in amplification

my Digital is based on a Bricasti M1, being driven by either a Simaudio Neo 260D or a MacBook Pro. Again, in digital, I lack for nothing.

in analog, I spin a Linn LP12,Ekos 2, Kore, Arkiv B, Lingo, and again, I feel I lack for nothing

in FM, it’s an MR78

All heard throu Revel Studio 2’s 

Are these the bleeding edge and absolute best in each category? No, but it doesn’t matter as everything I own is incredibly satisfying. That’s why I’m done. 
Nonrags, you are right. There are many paths that lead to total satisfaction with your music in your own environment. The sooner anyone gets to the destination, the sooner you can forget about the system and just enjoy th music. Unfortunately, some people can’t recognize or appreciate the destination. 
Ivan- the journey was fun, but the destination is great!!

Ozzy- I've been down the tubed journey- First CJ Premier and then Rogue. Very happy I've landed in the land of Pass. 

I know skeptics will say famous last words, but two years is pretty good!!

Happy listening all- 
Charles- you are correct. Once you give up the chase for the absolute best and appreciate what you have, the equipment, though a means to an end, melts away and the music stands as the priority. Said another way, if nothing stands between the music and your enjoyment of the music, you've reached the sweet spot. I'm in the sweet spot.
