My point exactly. Once you have found a place of contentment, there is no need to twiddle and replace.
You turn from an audiophile to a music lover.

Music lover or audiophile?
I think you have to decide, are you a music lover or audiophile? I know the majority will say, both.
I’m not so sure though. The nature of audiophilia is to get in there and fiddle with the tools, like any other hobbyist. The difference in our hobby though is that presumably, our ultimate goal is to have the best musical experience we can get. The hobbyist is never really finished. The manipulation of the materials is the fun. The music lover, however, wants to get the most out of that esthetic experience.
By continually plying materials, the audiophile is on an endless quest for better sound.
After years of this quest, I’ve decided I can be a music lover or an audiophile. I’m happy listening to my system now the way it is. So, I’ve decided to be a music lover once again.
