Habituation to system changes: the Audiophiles' curse...


I've made a lot of great upgrades to my system in the past year and a half and it sounds much more engaging, quiet, pure, and detailed than it used to.  But a little while after making any of these changes, I forget what it sounded like before!  For a perfectionist hobby like this, what a curse!  Always chasing that next noticeable sonic improvement, despite the diminishing returns...  

Who else struggles with this?

@jond i wish that were true for me, but it hasn’t been my experience thus far. Maybe you’re less obsessive about it?

if you really like the sound you're getting you will be happy
