I am all right with your remarks they are right on the spot...
I just want to add, that almost or at least, half of the audio system around here are already perfectly Hi-Fi potential good system...The necessity to upgrade is motivated by many reasons, but most of the times the vast majority of owners dont know what their audio system true potential are in the first place... The reasons are simple and had often NOTHING to do with the electronics components at all, except marginally...
They are linked to the necessity to remedy and treat the acoustical field of the audio room, to clean and decrease the electrical noise floor of the house and of the room and after that of the audio system itself, and also the controls of negative resonances through vibrations...I will not even speak of the necessary cheap and homemade tweaks that transform completely an audio system without buying anything costly...
Not knowing that and feeling the urge to upgrade tough is an illusion created by our own ignorance, entertained by strategic marketing on vulnerable customers... And also the results of science specialisation in a complex field like audio where they are too many complex variable to play with before gaining the best of an audio system without sometimes changing any electronical components ....
I own the same audio system for many years now and the difference between before and after these remedies application is not least than staggering... I does not entertain now the possibility of upgrading like before, it is only a fad for me now like my wife said, and no more the necessary step toward true Hi-Fi... My system, composed of vintage or used parts components, with low cost one, amount to under 1000 thousand dollars including headphones of high quality.... And if you look at "my virtual system" photos you will smile of my "poor audiophile" philosophy...But my audio system which does not compete for sure with higher, very higher costlier one, tough, is not so far behind than many of you will think...Music is here at last and the last smile is mine...
