We need more journey story like this...
Congratulations!
I am myself very happy by my system/room +headphone system for peanuts costs...
I even pity many with very costlier system instead of being envious,...
I know what i will do with 15,000 bucks instead of my 1000 bucks though...
But over 15,000 will be useless for me and my knowledge ...
Then my satisfaction result from knowledge not resignation...
I called this state where i am : "minimal acoustical satisfaction threshold"...
To reach the optimal state of acoustical satisfaction , i need 15,000 bucks not 1000 ...
But trust me minimal acoustical satisfying state is not synonymus with any acoustic frustation...
A natural timbre experience associated with all acoustical spatial cues are enough ...
But it takes 15,000 to go higher or high end when you know what to do nothing more ....
