A Tough Question

Thank y'all for your kind words of support. It's a thin line between passionate absorption in one's hobby vs. neurotic navel gazing, but I know I'm not the only who has stood in front of their electronics and wondered "oh system, why hath thou forsaken me?"

Onhwy61, I was in the same boat not too long ago. Here is my post from my Thread "Any 12 Step Programs To just QUIT" ???

When do you finally draw the LINE, in trying to build the Perfect Beast? I'm at the point where I'm in my UPS delivery guy's wedding party in August. I know more personal information about my Property Insurance Agent, then my Significant Other. My Doctor won't prescribe any more pain killers for my lower back? Honestly, this hobby/habit once under your skin has to be tougher to shake than......... Maybe Sam Telling is right all you need is $13.00 Acoustic Research interconnects from Best Buy? Gosh Darnit They're Sold Out!
Jane, how do you stop this Crazy Thing???

At times this hobby does seem to take over, like alcoholism. (Maybe?) When you get to the point of listening to every component with the points up & then down to see what sounds better.

This is AudioGone not AA (Audiophile Anoymous) yet there are some really great supportive users on here as well.

Before you hit the brink of madness, just back off, & just enjoy the music. This is why you built you system anyway?

And if you should go off the edge again we are here for you!

Ohhh good grief.

Its mine. All mine. My precious. PRECIOUUUSSssss.

I'm just worried that you're able to take "Fight Club" seriously in any way... ;^)

It's a gift to be simple. It's a gift to be free.

But if you owned the perfect system and there was nothing to improve upon, then what would you do with your time and money?
My response? Wait 6 months =:-)
