Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby?

It’s the dopamine rush.  Whether it be cars, guitars or stereos, as long as your body craves that ‘high’ from searching or purchasing you’ll most likely be ‘in it’.  It starts with a love of audio, whether it be visual, sonic or a combination of both, but quickly can become a need.  We should feel lucky as for some it’s heroin.  🙃

I’m done too many other hobbies, Porsche’s, boating & offshore fishing. My fun money only goes so far. Last piece was an OPPO 105D used. You guys will probably laugh but I love my 7.2 M&K S150 speakers & subs. Powered by my 3 channel Parasound & 4 channel HK Citation amps. It’s a decent mid fi system that I’m content with. 

At my age I'm no longer chasing gear, but instead enjoying the gear I have. It continues to provide me with listening enjoyment and that's all  that I can ask of any audio system. 

Enjoy the music! 👍

Having put together a very satisfying system over the past four years, I have only to add a better streamer to finish off my system.  I believe I am at the point that even minor, incremental improvements could prove to be quite costly … the cost likely way out of proportion with improvement achieved.  Given my point in life, almost 80, and my satisfaction with my present system, I foresee only minor improvements, such as better interconnects and perhaps room correction, maybe active and passive.  

I will have to let my audio magazine subscriptions go before I can quit buying new gear.  But my wife just booked an expensive trip with her girlfriend so I feel OK to spend the same on me. [Possibly more].
