Number of yrs. to reach the finished line?

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.

How many times did you try a tweak/ component only to find yourself eating BS after owning the stuff for a while. Frankly I found it quite boring at the end. Time to conquer something new.

The Tenor amp and the Lampizator dac has transported me to my destination.

Well said. Unfortunately, to get to that point requires a journey. I am glad you found your sweet spot, mine came with the Clayton M300's and Tom Evans Vibe/Pulse II combo. Those are two I will not replace, and probably not the Aerial's either. I cannot imagine how it can sound much better without spending $$$$$....

Mitch2, I bet that Clayton & Vibe combo sounds great! I sense they are a great match and sound wonderful together.

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.
