I have a confession to make


I have an addiction, and I have to stop. I don't know if it is upgradeitis, or audiophileism. But I suddenly feel real bad. My wife who is the most wonderfull person in the world is even becoming concerned.
It all started one day looking for some speakers for my very modest home theatre set up in my living room. I wanted to be able to enjoy music also. Low end Sony CD player you know. I was using these God awful Fischer speakers with 15" woofers.
Well, that was about 5 years ago. Now $40,000.00 later, I have a dedicated HT room and A dedicated Tube based listening room. I don't make this kind of money to be doing this. What the hell is my problem ? The Vpi record washing machine was the last straw for my wife. "$500 to wash a record? You have a serious problem". She is right,what the hell am I doing? But I continue to look at what is for sale. What would be better than what I have?
Please I beg all of you, If you receive a email from me wanting to buy your product, please delete my email. If you see any of my products for sale, please don't make an offer. I need friggin help here man.
I have to realize that there can always be better than what I have. Just enjoy what the heck I have and be done with it. Masn this is one sick addiction.

Only look at the forums or block buy.audiogon.com at the firewall (I do it at both work and home). Still get my daily fix of audiogon but cannot buy anything, has saved me many times when temptation was starting to get the best of me.

Spend your time on the music itself instead, listening, researching, and the occasional album purchase, divert your attention. Get rid of Agon as a shortcut on your desktop...
Stop combing the other audio sites for equip too, today. Be satisfied with what your have now before you start losing it for the $$, then never being able to recover what you had in the first place.
