Can one ever be "done" in this hobby?

^^^^^
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? 

"The audio thing has just sort of gone away"


That's why you are here right?

Nope, I am beyond saving!

Just bought 2sets of speakers because dirt cheap and always wanted to try these particular ones and seriously eying up a Well Tempered Labs TT.

Do I need any of these items? Course not but decided what the heck does that matter!

Whatever I do not like will go towards upgrading my daughter's system so no loser in the game at all.

Maybe if someone wants to be "done" spending  money on their system they should do something like a Clockwork Orange retraining therapy.

Commit to playing only Michael Bolton, Wang Chung, and Mumble Rap only for a month.  Your interest in and spending on your stereo system will likely subside.
