Mess with you when you sleep?

Is it the first thing you think about to get your day started?

Do you hunger for it?

Last thought before youy go to bed?

Why do you upgrade?

Why is it so nessary all the time?


Or is it?????????????

    When my system was crappy I didn't think about it much. When the system became good I wanted to take it a step ahead. When I first tried a tube amp my upgrades skyrocketed because I could actually hear all the differences. Now that I am broke I don't think about it as much anymore.

    When I get my tube amp to put with my DIY periscopes I'll be done for a long time. Other than a DIY sub to go with the P-scopes. My little $500.00 2ch rig is going to blow the socks off most systems I've heard in stores and already kills anything I've heard in any home.

    HT is done for a long time.

    1. No
    2. Yes
    3. No
    4. Yes
    5. It's easier to better my system than myself.
    6. I need alot of bettering done.

    girah,
    5. It's easier to better my system than myself.

    Ok.....I read it,I understand it,but I don't get it.:confused:

    The path to better ones system is not a easy road.

    The path to better ones self is not a easy road.

    There are alot of information to gather to better ones sytem.

    There is alot of different ways to better ones self.

    You got me thinking.......How does one better himself?What is cool about this is that there is always room for improvement.My life id deadicated to self improvement.Mentally,physically,spirit.........etc.Strange you speak of the 2 in the same breath........

    Like I said I read it,understand it,but I don't get it.......

    I have been in an upgrade mode since August. Prior to that, I knew I wanted to upgrade a few things, but it wasn't a priority.........until in 1 month I had a Tonsilectomy and then a Laproscopic Hernia surgery and I was camped in my apartment for about three and a half weeks.

    If I could have just been traveling with my job like I have for the past 3 years, I prolly could have made it another 6 months... :lol:
