Ever lost desire to listen to your system because

I recently had an SACD player in my system for about 4 weeks. It was an improvement over my CD player in terms of transparency and musicality. It developed a small buzz in the transport so I took it back. Since I've returned the SACD player, I've basically lost the desire to listen to my system. The "magic" is gone because I've heard the system sound much better that it does now. Anyone ever had similar situations? How did you (or how do you plan to) recover from the trauma? My plan is to buy the SACD player again. Just waiting on some money.

I had an APT Holman pre-amp for a while. When the opertunity to make a two way trade came along I jumped at it only realizing after it was gone just how good the APT pre-amp really was. It took some time till I was able to replace the new pre-amp with something that was an improvement but sitting in front of the system and listening to what you know is not as good really bites.
I had my turntable back to Sota to have some upgrades done so all I had was my CD player. I didn't listent to much music while the Sota was gone.
