AA for us

I feel that at this point that I am showing all signs of an addict and I am no longer a functioning addict, unfortunately.

If this is a real post, sorry to hear this.

IMHO, it’s the undefinability of it all. Whether you are unhappy and can’t find what you want or you ARE happy and curious about what out there is better.

How does one get off the merry-go-round?

@cdc real post. Very astute observation about whether 

unhappy and can’t find what you want or you ARE happy and curious about what out there 

Both, and in between; when it's an addiction, it's about the feeling of wanting more and something different, and not being able to stop.

focus that energy on new music……

The First Step to returning to becoming a Functional Non Obsessive Individual in relation to ones Interests in Audio Equipment is to:

1, Admit ones own Head is far up ones own void between the Derriere, where Audio Equipment is concerned.   

The problem is not audiophiles, it is the human species. Humans think arrogantly they are smart and are the most evolved creature on earth, when really they fall between the common Zebra and three toed sloth in the evolutionary hierarchy. Humans have the brain power equivalent to a pumpkin and will piss away anything they may think they have created. Whatever remains will kill them in time.
