The (never ending) Quest For “More”

This is what drives my insanity 👌🏼

Yeah, I thought you were virtue signalling a bit there, and there was a hint of this:

people with enough money to upgrade have let this take over their ability to just focus on the music.  That is snarky indeed.

.

It's a sickness! I just upgraded my pre-amplifier from D'Agostino progression to D'Agostino momentum HD and bought Estelon Xb diamonds speakers

about to replace my focal kanta 3 , Two and a half months ago, And now I'm wanting to upgrade To the estelon X diamond,  And I'm using my savings 

😭 I can't stop!

@bolong:

people with enough money to upgrade have let this take over their ability to just focus on the music.

I didn’t say that.

What I did say:

It’s easy to lose track of the music if you’re constantly obsessed with upgrading

... which can be a problem even if one has little to spend. It’s just that one can get much more carried away with endless gear chasing if one has lots to spend.

I never said that having a large audio budget inherently leads to endless gear chasing or necessarily inhibits appreciation for music. There are forum members who I very much respect who have much more costly systems than I’ll ever have AND who clearly love music.
