As a vinyl enthusiast & really enjoying this thread . I have a question to fellow hi fi enthusiasts, do you ever listen to or play anything on your super systems ,it seems more time money & effort is given to the set up than the enjoyment of actually listening to music .

Both, but mostly it’s about the enjoyment of the music for me. There is also much pleasure to be derived from putting together and upgrading the system, though.
Still love to play and collect vinyl, try not to get upgradeitis, just enjoy what you have. Some of my system I’ve owned for 25 years and still sounding great, mainly Linn based, in fact Eva Cassidy blues alley is sounding fantastic tonight with a glass of red.
Headphones are relatively easy to get into the endgame. Headphone amps though…..
Relatively easy to get into but costs can add up quickly. About two years ago I started down the headphone rabbit hole, now have two Focal cans (an open back and a closed back) and a Feliks Euforia tube amp.....about $5k all up.

Mine for 150 bucks today (I thought about starting a ‘What HiFi Did You Buy Today’ thread … if this post should rather go there someone PM me and I’ll delete this and start that)
How did I do? Oh, I know it’s a bottom feeder in the audio food chain …and an AV receiver to boot …however I bought it as a multi channel amplifier (I think as far as AV signals go, AppleTV 4k is hard to beat) and thus to connect a Toslink (i think that’s the name for the digital optical cable) source and have more speakers in my lounge than the two I have currently enjoyed the last 15 years … now about those speakers … all ideas welcome!

Yep Toslink, I always tell people that you can not go wrong with Yamaha audio equipment (including musical instruments) they are the god of high end consumer product and commercial equipment too.
Really one of the only the only surviving top end Japanese manufacturers, I bow in obeisance, Hail Yamaha, too over the top? not really, their specs are real.
