Your single most significant purchase mistake?

 My ex wife

Martin-Logan Monolith IIIx. Ultimately, my bad. Magnificent speakers that could never integrate into my room. Broke my heart. Sent them to Japan to an eager buyer, who paid the shipping! I got off easy, money-wise.

Raven Audio Blackhawk. This product was over-hyped on these forums. I bought one and found it to be below average. Sold it at a significant loss. 
 

 Peachtree 125 - bright, bright, bright  

bowers and Wilkins CM10s - sterile, thin midrange. Sold it within a year. 

Forgot to add Topping D90 dac. This was supposed to be best measuring dac that was a giant killer. Hyped up on ASR. Boring, sterile, etched sound. No soul.

That forum hyper gave out so much trash "information". I'm sure you're not the only one that got hosed,
