Has anyone made the jump to $uper High end and were disappointed?

I'm talking $50,000 and higher amps, speakers, cablesetc. I know there is excellent sounding gear from $100 to infinity (much is system dependent, room, etc). However, just curious if someone made the leap and deep down realize the "expected" sound quality jump was not as much as the price jump. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to make that jump. However, looking at another forum's thread about price point of diminishing returns got me wondering if anyone had buyers remorse. It's not easy to just "flip" a super high priced component.

I went to sound show couple of months ago and heard systems that cost twice /triple and more compare to mine .
Did it sounded better than mine ?
Yes it did.
Did it sounded twice/triple and more compare to my system ?
No it didn’t !!!
My conclusion is that I am happy with my system and I will not splash extrovagent amounts on expensive high end systems to achieve a minor improvement to what I alreay have.
The right way is to build carefully the correct system for your needs ,throwing away a lot of money for expensive gear is certainly not a guarantee for a good system .
