Are you at this point??

Yeah, I'm done. Wanna sell me your XPS2 so I can mate it with my CDX2? Oops, there I go again. Forget I said that.

I'm SLOWLY getting to that point. When I first started this journey - and journey is the destination - I had cast a really wide net. Everything was game, solid state, tube, SACD, CD, any type of speaker, cable etc.

I've since established a certain direction that I enjoy: Analog (I don't even own a CDP), SET and single driver speakers. Now, my tweaking is within that universe. It's certainly slowed down and it'll probably be some time before I make a major adjustmet but, that is more a financial constraint than discipline or satisfaction.

And I admit it, I do NOT just enjoy music. I enjoy the hands on equipment part of this hobby.

Nice feeling, isn't it!? Enjoy while it lasts. I feel the same, my main system has been static for 8 months now. After the Pipedreams everything just fell into place.

It's possible I may swap some cable in and out, however I'm completely satisfied with the sound I'm getting at this point, and for me...that's good.

Lots of equipment rolled in and out of here the last 15 years :-/

Best,

Paul :-)

I'm almost done again.....I think. :)

Nice speakers BTW, but how can you be done, and happy, with no vinyl or tubes?

You also might consider trying some Walker Audio Reference High Definition Links on those speakers. They work mighty fine on my Parsifal Encore's.
Just a thought. ;^)

Me too, yet on the other hand:
My amps, pre amp, speakers, front end, cables & p/s are set.
My biggest problem is vinyl - I'm a "vinyl junkie"!
This month alone - I bought 4 more cartridges, a A to D converter, another phono stage (which I dearly needed for my 7 turntables), yet another turntable & yet & yes I still want more.
Hopefully, tomorrow I'll get there or run out of space & money.
SHOOT ME!
