When is your Hifi good enough?


Just wondering what makes people tick in regards to determining when things sound "good enough"?

For me I have a vision in my mind of how things should sound based on what I have heard over the years.  Once it sounds that way, I am done.   I can still enjoy listening to other sounds or sounds that omit some things I might want otherwise but if I do not get regular samplings of "that sound" I probably start to wonder.

A system is good enough for me (as for others who have said the same here and elsewhere) when I find myself completely absorbed, consumed, and inhabited by the music---becoming one with it, rather than thinking about the sound of it. Good equipment, and even good sound, is only the means to an end---more appreciation and enjoyment of, and deeper connection with, music---God's greatest gift to mankind (followed closely by dogs ;-).
