Why is it that I feel I need to constantly be upgrading my setup? Why can't I be happy with what I have? I know there is bigger and better out there. I know most people would kill for my meager setup.

Marantz AV560U pre/rpo
Rotel RMB-1066
Panasonic 47wx52(16:9)
Panasonic RP82
Paradigm Mini Monitors, CC-350, PS1000
Marantz RC5000i

Why, Why Why?????

Kevin,

Fantasy Football has cured me from August through January the past two years :) Unfortunately, there are 7 other months! One cure might be to stop reading all forums and home theater magazines....

Is there a cure? Just shoot me maybe (or my husband will take me out). The thought crossed my pea brain last week. Hey I wonder what kind of trade-in I could get on the new Vienna Acoustic Beethoven’s towards the Mahlers (which I have not even heard, nor know, if I would like). Did get my HD capability up and running and shortly after I managed to tone down my desire for a bigger bad-er HD STB till they sort out the [issues]. I had to return my most recen STB. NOT feeling hopeful for the latest PVR included versions after that foray. AN urge (growing) to hear a REL sub.

Nope.....not many cures!

Well, I've brought it up in another thread that maybe some of us should visit the Betty Ford Clinic. That might be a start to help us with our addictions. Or at least start a support group....

I don't know. I think there are worse habbits we could have. (I'm now trying to deny or at least justify my problem. I guess that's the first sign I really am addicted). At least we're not addicted to crack or heroin. Although if you happen to be that too, I want to know what you do for a living cause I can't even support my audio habbits. :)

I don't think there is a cure for HT upgraditis. Too many components and too many changes in technology for those components.

I do think stereo 2-channel does have a cure, since drastic changes come about much slower in that realm. Or at least it can have a longer time span between upgraditis infections.
