How many of you spend more time upgrading rather than listening?

What's the difference?

I mean, mostly I'm doing both... put on some tunes, start listening, suddenly think "hummm, wonder what would happen if I swapped the power cords between the CD player and the amp, might sound better, power cord on amp is better than cord on CD, I've heard that the further upstream you improve things, the more impact it will have on the resulting sound, and I also wonder what would happen if I ran the output of the DVD player directly into the D/A rather than through the DTI..."

I thought about posting this question myself at one point.

No doubt I spend more time tweaking my system, and listening to the same sections of the same DVDs over and over, to see if I can tell the difference, than I do just listening for the sheer pleasure of it.

Let's face it: for some of us, home theater is something of an obsession, or, dare I say it, an addiction (Hey, it's a lot better than heroin.)

But I swear, when I get those new IRD monoblocks from Fed Ex, I'm just going to set them up, tweak my system one last time, and then leave it alone...for a little while.
