mitch2 “I don’t understand why this stuff happens”. I fell off my chair laughing when I read that. Everyone here on the gone should have that sentence scribed on a marble plaque above their listening area.
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 😂!

I'm not sure--maybe? I love my gear but I also like window shopping and tweaking them every now and then. I'm going to Axpona for the first time next week so I'm sure I'm going to find some interesting new gear to investigate. But knowing the prices will probably be going up soon, I may need to buy sooner. Who knows? |
@audioman58 - I have been over here in Japan the past two weeks and seeing Crowns everywhere. I don’t remember seeing any back in Michigan. They are so sweet! |
