Number of yrs. to reach the finished line?

Ten long years and way to much $$$ lost running sometimes backwards and sideways.

No more for me. I am very happy with the end result and can live a very long time with what I have built.

The Lampizator / Tenor was what brought me to the end and took the longing out of me for better sound.

What say you?

i haven't decided when i reach a level of inaccuracy that is acceptable, so i continue to make adjustments.

This is how i feel as well. The problem is, I doubt I will ever find a level that is 'acceptable' for the long term. For me, it's about the journey, not the destination.

Reaching the destination is where the fun starts. The journey is like hell at times with the loss of $$$ to go backwards/sideway.

disagree with the former, agree with the latter. I like the journey. It can be a $$ sucker, but it's a huge part of why I'm in this to begin with. Trying new gear and tweaking the system to obtain better than what i had before is enjoyable to me.

I think it's simply a personal decision. It could be based on things such as you don't want to spend any more money, or the journey has tired you and you don't want to deal with upgrading, or that you feel content enough with what you have, etc.
