Hey Mark,
Glad you are in a better place. Jeffrey Jackson who designed my preamp seems to take the optimistic approach to situations like this... "well I'm learning something"
Your journey certainly has me thinking about the eternal question...when do you stop? In my profession, perfection is oft times the enemy of good. OTOH Mae West probably had it about right when she observed that "Too much of a good thing is wonderful!". I'm getting old enough (and my system has reached a place) where any sonic improvement would be an unexpected and happy bonus. I spend way more time listening to music and looking at music website than I do looking at audio equipment. Might be worthy of a separate thread....
