Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby?
Here I go again buying more cables. Just when I said no more I find a deal too good to pass up. 😂

 Though I will probably never stop purchasing audio related stuff moving forward it will be discretionary to say the least. Done are the days of piss…. away money on tweaks and unnecessary gimmick products especially isolating devices and other so...

Caught myself almost buying something new that I probably don’t need but like a lot of purchases was an act of want not need!

One area I know for sure I’ve reached my end point is expensive unnecessary tweak's that everyone seems to producing these days.

@audiodwebe What level of equipment is it that you have so much? Maybe you could try to sell a lot of it and move up to the next level? LOL, that's not something a person who has reached the end point wants to hear!

@mksun  Read part of that article and it hits home. It’s a craving for something new, not necessarily better, that is behind the urge make a change.

I think discovering good new music is where money should be spent. With that being said, I have wasted a lot of money on music that isn't that good. This can be said for poor vinyl pressings that seem to be common these days.        
What are your thoughts on Raidho?
They don't hold their value at all. I have seen current models selling used at 75% off retail. I think this has to do with Raidho's Models always being replaced after 2-3 years. As for their sound heard them at Axpona and wasn't that impressed. IM...

I actually think the areas where I haven’t hit the end point are things that can improve what I already have. Example: record flattening device for my LPs.   
$3500 floor standing speakers used. What would be your choice ?
Screw the floor standing speaker. At $3500. I heard the PS Audio F5 stand mounted speaker and it’s beyond anything in the $3500. range I have heard. Incredible soundstage, transparency and detail. Just beyond anything one should expect from a spea...

I believe I have my system right where I need to be now. After returning from Axpona over the weekend and listening to my system again I think I’m on par with 95% of what I heard there. Was thinking while I was listening to PS Audio Fr30 speakers ... 
Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby?
Just returned from Axpona and was pleasantly surprised to see a lot of companies displaying more affordable, albeit still costly equipment, that sounded incredible. A lot of what I heard I could live with and be happy with and call it a day. But t...
