Mr. Mejias:
I find it a sad commentary on the direction this hobby has taken that you were called out to "defend" your system and it's cost.
I am ten years older than you and VERY happily rolled with an NAD/Sony/B&W system through most of my 30's. I probably never enjoyed music more.
I now have a system that costs ten times as much or more than that modest system but my musical enjoyment has not increased by ten times.
Keep on trucking. Musical enjoyment and system cost generally have no correlation IMO.
Too many parlour audiophiles around here..ones that never leave their house to enjoy live music, can't listen on "bad" systems in social situations, and are generally party poopers. :)

So, relative to your audio journey, is ten times the threshold before becoming a fool's errand?
Don't you get tired of looking for answers where there are no questions?
Like you, I used a question mark. So, what's your response a statement?

The vast majority of people here are well past the place that normal people would call the point of diminishing returns. That's why it's called an Asylum. :-)

No joke..I've actually seen listening rooms scarier than this!
