Can one ever be "done" in this hobby?

Weekend at Bernie’s is the end of it all,
Once you have entered, for help you will call...

The Holy Grail, its the journey' not the destination.

This has been posted a few times and is so true. The better are systems sound the more we want more.

I’m getting close to being done.

Had a VTL tube preamp for 20 years. Upgraded to next VTL preamp. Telefunken tubes - Done.

SS amp died a couple years ago. New better SS amp. Probably done.

Same cables for 20 years. Upgraded cables. Need to upgrade one more set of interconnects.

On good recordings, I can now hear singers inhaling, timbres are correct, & you can hear the size of the recording room as if you are there.

I’m close to being done...

An audiophile will never be done.  The whole point of the hobby is to twiddle.
Once you have reached stasis, you’re no longer an audiophile.

^^^^^
I respectfully disagree. The whole point of this hobby is to enjoy and be immersed in your music. Once that's accomplished, what more is there, really?
