I am glad that you enjoy your system Calvin. That’s all that matters.
I am in a good place as well. I have had more expensive demo stuff in my system, and it didn’t work. Not in it for “my stuff costs more than yours” factor.
And I truly believe that I am at the asymptotic part of the curve, where shelling out a lot of extra cash will only marginally improve things.
For a long time my base system was my College dorm system—Advent 3 bookshelf speakers, an entry level Pioneer receiver, entry level turntables, cassette recorders, and then a Sony 14 bit CDP. When I finally started upgrading, each successive change was huge. Now, not so much
