How good can it get, really? - my stereo sounds amazing!

I really love my stereo currently. I keep thinking I should be looking for the next piece to upgrade - phono stage, stereo subs, etc., but honestly not sure what to change or why I’d potentially spend more money to achieve a result that’s lesser or equal to my current sound quality. I sorta feel clueless as to how to proceed without screwing up what I have. I know it can get better but honestly I’m at a place when I just don’t know how it can. Hmmmmm.... not a bad problem I guess. Open to suggestions for sure. Thx.

Kinda reminds me of the Porsche 993 911 Turbo that I owned with 600HP/ 596 ft lbs torque and could do 200 mph all day, but it just wasn't fast enough for me ?! How much is too much and when do you stop?? I don't have FU money in my audio system but I couldn't get the smile off my face yesterday as I wallowed in music heaven

Kinda the place I'm at now. I have a great (to me) system consisting of a Linn Klimax streamer, Burmester 077 two piece preamp, Burmester power conditioner, pair of Burmester 911 amps, and a pair of Wilson Alexx speakers. Looking at the Wilson XVX's now. That would cost me $240K after trade in for the Alexx's. Would they sound better? Almost certainly. But would they be worth the money? That's the dilemma! There will always be the next great component. When is enough enough??

Hire U2 to come into your living room and play live...it would probably cost less then you guys spend on gear.
