I was spending lots of money in the 2000's and revolving/evolving my system. I certainly made some mistakes.....and the system(s) at times wasn't as enjoyable. I spent so much time about "better/upgrading" that I lost touch with the love of music.
I don't commonly buy new stuff now. I occasionally will buy something used after reading many comments on forums. It is harder now for me to "sell" than to "buy" as I'm afraid I will have regrets. That is the worst. I miss my McIntosh MC252, MDA1000, Klipsch KG 5.2's, and the first pair of Klipsch La Scalas I had. jc

Exactly. The journey is expensive... but so are automotive sports. And audio is less dangerous.

I got a nasty paper cut from an owners manual once...

I too spent much more to be where I am now than if I just bought what I have from the beginning. But it’s a fallacy to think that it’s ever possible to start at the end state. I would never know what I wanted or had the conviction to spend what it costs without the experiences, good and bad, along the way For that reason I like brands that let you come in at the entry level and upgrade as you feel the value. |
