An answer to your questions

Your questions stimulated me to add up the actual cost of my system--complete with the cost of the mistakes. The mistakes are those things I wish I hadn't bought, that I had to go out and replace to get the desired performance. It should be noted that I do not "upgrade." i.e. I don't buy a piece of gear in order to improve the sound of my system. When I buy new stuff, it's to get a capability I don't have.

Current system cost: $1080
Cost of mistakes: $420
460 CDs: ~$3200
1200 homemade cassettes: ~$1200

Total: $5900

Yes, this is a lot of money and a lot of time, but it's not unreasonable for a music lover with a mild case of audiophilia.
