Is your system amazing and you just dont see it?


Human nature is highly critical, never satisfied, wants continual change and variety.  So after working so hard and spending a fair sum, the system in place is actually quite good.  So why not enjoy the smell of the roses, which are perfectly satisfying, nature knows what we like.

sure i will likely do more but the quality of whats here is at a very high level. Took alot of work and so i can be satisfied, not easy.  
Its ok not to want things to be better all the time.  Go against the grain of human nature.

Good observation. My own system sounds good to me, but of course experience at shows and audio salons has shown me that more and better is of course possible. 
Even so, when I listen in the evening by myself, I always come around to the same realization that the particular strength of my current system is that I almost never think of the electronics or the speakers (even though they are large). I just feel like the music is being recreated before me, and I rarely think of the electro-mechanical process. This has been even more true since I have started using a Schumann generator.
I am now retired and just before I did retire I got myself a very expensive headphone and computer system . I built a bespoke computer for myself using the best components I could source and it and the headphones and phone Amp cost a fortune. I was so pleased with my new system that it totally blew my standard hi fi rig right out of the water . The levels of detail were so astonishing that I sold my old stuff which paid for my new headphone rig and even had enough for a classic motorcycle also.
I now am totally happy with what I have and not had the urge to buy anything else for years. I am happy in the knowledge that I am hearing much more information than people with equipment in 5 or even 6 figures.
I try to live with the philosophy ‘want what you have’

I enjoy my system and I am sure it can be improved and others would prefer something else. And I even question if it was worth the time and money - most days I would say yes and the other days would have me downsize to live out of a suitcase.
