Ha ha ha. This sort of thread, cracks me up. For now: "Welcome to Head-fi. Sorry about your wallet". For later: "Welcome to administrative law. Sorry about your bankruptcy."

These were things supposed to bring joy,not thoughts of terrible addiction?If not,maybe this hobby is not for you.Keep in mind that audio stuff does not lose it's value over time.I'm new here,but I swear:won't ever regret for a single coin spent.

Why the hell did you buy a Fiio???

Also, looks like you got off pretty easy... no purchase was over 100$ on its own, and your total was below 200$... Consider yourself lucky, and quit while you can! :p

I regret some coins, but i haven't bought my PC350 because of head-fi, so it really is me to blame, and the gamers who know nothing about headphones yet rate these high.
And yeah, i'm only 18 and i just signed in two days ago, now i'm looking for a job to afford all the headphones i have in mind. seriously.

First thing I bought after I joined this community was my first 'audiophile worthy' speaker system for a total of around 800 euros, then I bought my first 'serious' IEM: the Jays s-Jays for around 80 euros. After that the FiiO E5 amp for around 15 euros. Then my first headphone: The Ultrasone HFI 780 for 175 euros and recently a pair of Denon AH-C751 for 50 euros.
Adding up to a total of around 1120 euros. (my god... first time I've counted it all up together and now I realise that I've spent quite alot of money on audio equipment already...)

So ye, thanks Head-Fi !

I'm very happy with all of it, but my wallet is still in pain...
