Equipment purchase that made you want to get off the Merry Go Round (good or Bad)


So, I just auditioned another pair of speakers after reading the reviews and getting caught up in the hype. 
I won't name any specifics since I'd rather not start that type of debate.
Anyway, I was excited to get them but once I hooked them up ran them for a week my impression of the sound was these aren't for me. Nothing new here we have all done this a some point in our quest for great audio. 
However this time I had the strong feeling that I am staying put for a long while unless something breaks. 

Have you ever reach the conclusion that you are done for a while either because you maybe found the missing puzzle and achieved the sound you are looking for or in my case over-reached and bought something you didn't need falling prey to the hype of reviews,

Welcome to the club. I've been on the wagon for many years now.  Just replace  one consumable item-phono cartridge from wear or  unexpected disaster.

I just need 2 things- a working turntable and a good FM tuner. Seeing and hearing  nice unaffordable gear at stores/shows is enough.

Tannoy Canterbury’s.....ended my pursuit and desire for any other speakers out there!!!

Electronics: Accuphase E-650 and EMM Labs DA2 (DAC)
