Equipment that has made you 'stop' looking?

OK we all know what a merry-go-round audio can be. For those of us who are incessant upgraders, what components have you found that either have stopped or seriously curtailed your search for better?

For me its my Audio Tekne Cables and my vintage Classe DR3 amps (25 wpc high current class A design designed by Dave Reisch in the early days of the company). My Green Mountain Audio Continuum 3s would probably fall into this category, but I would probably buy the next statement models that Roy Johnson builds sight unheard.

Joseph Chow from Audio Horizons power cords. Very neutral, and just the most natural sounding cord. So I screwed it up and added Oyaide plugs, this has been a huge improvement, along with his amazing Dimension interconnect. This interconnect beat out the Acoustic Zen Silver Matrix for my cd player to pre-amp. I could not get Joseph to sell me another dimension interconnect as they are still in design stage....but WOW!! I kept the Zen Matrix Reference ll for the amp/pre-amp connection. Also my AR Classic 30 loudspeakers, I still love my BAT cd player, but I would buy Joseph's tube DAC in a second!
