the one that got away - how do you handle grief?

I missed two Plasmatron's and think them all the time. 

@Tattoo,

What mods did they have? The Xover's were crap doing with the EQ! 

I just beat myself up for being a c×nt when I shouldn’t have been and keep it moving. Almost invariably, I’m then energized to go find another one and pay more...as a type of self-inflicted punishment.

Over forty years, I occasionally succumbed to the temptation to chase a fantasy product either for aesthetics or supposed extreme performance. Meh. If you are not prepared to build the rest of the rig around it to make it sound reasonably good to excellent, it’s not worth it. YMMV 

Don’t get the idea that you will drop your fantasy product into your rig and it will outdo all others. The odds of that are vanishingly low.

If you’re buying it because you think it looks cool, don’t expect great sound.  

Find an Audiophile psychotherapist which may be difficult but not impossible.
