Are you ever satisfied?

Some call it hobby, I call it "Gardener's Syndrome" (gardener always has to find something to trim or re-pot).

Jax2 - I'm with you. Now, I have decent system (I think) and only something really great would make me spend money. I'm afraid to go to audio shows for that reason.

Unfortunately, room is the most expensive part and "taming" it is completely new (and expensive) game.

Douglas - You are absolutely right. I tried to tweak my speakers by putting much better tweeter and expensive xover components. I could not properly integrate it (not easy) and gave up. I ended up buying better speakers and realized that tweeter was only part of the problem. Now I'm sorry, that I spent all this money for expensive components instead of selling speakers before any mods.

I'm surprised that people go for expensive mods to their electronics. For instance there was a company making mods to improve Benchmark DAC1 performance. Result was very good, according to testimonies, but it was completely different DAC - non jitter rejecting (non-upsampling). Why to even buy Benchmark if you want to have NOS DAC?

I agree that saving money and making big step is a way to go unless tweaking itself is a main goal.
