For me, the best fit was the last answer "reached the summit of perfection", but only because there was no option for "reached a point where my system sounds the way I want it to sound" - which is more subjective and less "final" than the summit of perfection.

I did not want to vote for "happy right where it is" because, in a question about passion, it makes it sound like I did not care enough to make an effort (i.e. "whatever").

I guess I can define myself as having a passionate but rational obsession, i.e., passionate and obsessed in a sense that I do care a lot and think a lot about my system and music (like most people on this forum) but rational in the sense that, apparently, know when to stop - even when my budget would allow me to do and spend more. There's no doubt in my mind that if I didn't like some aspect of my system right now, I'd be studying and shopping around for a fix. But it I am really satisfied with my well-matched, but not-so-holy grail of a system.
