I would be satisfied with a fraction of the gear I have acquired. It is a cliche but true, at least in my case, that it is really about the music. I have always preferred to have more, value-oriented gear rather than less choices of totl stuff. The diminishing returns hit pretty hard over 500.00/component. Other than my primary dac (Gungnir Multibit A2), i haven't spent over 700.00 on any component, including my 2 channel rig. But I like having choices. And I don't have anything with which I am not satisfied.
