I love the system I have now but still tinker and if I can improve it for a not crazy amount of $$ I will. And it's basically my only real indulgence so I don't feel guilty about it at all.

I had to abandon my hifi addiction when I turned 30 or so, and was stereo-less until last year. It was fun getting back to speed.

As far as the audio market dying, I think it is something on a larger scale.

This year has to be one of the worst for me. Everyone wants what I offer, they just don't want to pay for it.
