Tough question. I recently purchased a Wiim music streamer and a Schiit Audio phono stage. Both together were about $ 800. Not a lot of money in this hobby. Both components work well. I believe I'm done with large ticket items, with the exception of cartridges. MC quality carts are expensive and don't last forever. I'm 70, retired, and living on a budget...
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 😂!
