In any hobby....there's always a bigger whale :xf_wink:
Ain't it the truth :rolling_eyes: I have trouble with the fine line of between obsessed and psycho killer (as in gotta have the newest) and something I already have will die:scream: LOL not really that drastic but it's the little pang's-n-thangs that get ya:smiling_imp:

The minimalist in me is shaking my head at this scene, but other the part that loves the thrill of buying new gear and gaining more experience and options is in awe.
Luckily for us you haven't listed them all in your signature as Redcarmoose's is starting to take half a thread page each time he posts, which makes the non-minimalist me so envious.

The picture hurts my wallet :dt880smile: No idea how they sound, but I imagine it feels amazing cradling that nest of cable and the Fir audio IEMs in your palms.

My simple setup for today: the trusty Fiio FF3 with the new friend Topping G5.

Yes AK im mad that can no longer stream tidal other services but im still able to use Tidal via mc connect
Please note this dap and a AK 70mk2 are the only daps i own or have heard

The AK original Kann
Superb dac chip, lush vinyl liquidy tube dynamic relistic smooth velvety

JH Rosies 2, 8 bal armatures
Base switch on cable, ( i have not moved it), no need
Rocking and enjoying dap
Eagerly in future considering a new dap without giving away a kidney

Just enjoying the music which in my limited experience and a music background seems tuned perfectly luscious signature
But i need to upgrade 🤓

Ok, more economical rig.
For some of us that's still a steep one :rolling_eyes: I think my economical starts a little earlier than yours:scream:

Benjie T6/32GB MSD/Xduoo XQ-10/Sony 750's MMCX'd, pretty crazy what you can get for under $50:astonished:

Then again thinking of all I've spent in this hobby (just portable) over the years I could have bought a Cayin N8ii, EE Tri-Odin's cabled with El-T's "Ode to Laura" but I'm not sure how safe I'd feel just cruising around with my $10K portable rig:worried: But man would you have bragging rights and probably not find another person with 500 miles who were impressed:laughing:

Campfire Vega, back in the days with the lack of great source and portable amps and cables, it is realtively hard to unleash its full potential. With modern source gears, I can finally see its full power level.
