Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby?


I wonder if out there somewhere there’s a support group called Audiophile Anonymous 😂 that addresses Audiophiles constant need for perfection. For my self I would probably benefit from a couple of these group sessions. Putting humor aside there’s some truth to this hobby being addictive and at some point there has to be an end point where you are there and the need to upgrade serves no useful purpose. I can’t say I’m 100% there yet, but something inside me tells me I’m getting close to hitting rock bottom and when I do maybe I’ll see the light, or maybe not 😂!

Since of January 2024, I reached my endpoint with near SOTA equipment=

Von Schweikert VR9 SE MK2 new foundation sub amps and Masterbuilt wire

Westminster Labs REI mono block amps

Lampizator Poseidon DAC (pre-amp everyone says could be even better but it sounds fabulous with my analog set up)

Westminster Labs power cables and XLR interconnects 

Jay’s Audio CD transport CDt3 Mk3

Those are the majority of my listening room equipment which I won’t have to change for the next 25 years (I’m 69).
