Is it time to just quit?

Listen to your car stereo and not your home systefor a while . When you listen back to your home stereo you will go wow and have greater appreciation for it.

Pretty nifty little amp Mapman
And for a grand sum of $70?
Makes you wonder just how much we have become accustomed to audio snobbery.
$70? 
Would not even buy me a fuse in current mentality mode.

Hmmm....
🤔🤔🤔

I've never responded to any kind of post on audiogon.  Your's is the first.  Why not take some time building your music collection and exploring new music... FOR FREE.  I live on pittsburgh and I decided awhile back to go through all the cd stacks in all the major libraries of pittsburgh.  It took a couple years but I can tell you what I did and how.  It revolutionized my music collection and my experience of music as much,  if not more,  than spending thousands of dollars.  I can compare because I did both,  the library thing AND the spending thousands of dollars thing.  If you're interested in my tips pm me.  . 

I want to reiterate, I have no plan, idea, notion nor interest in NOT listening to music. Somehow the original message was perhaps misleading. The only thing I would maybe thinking of. possibly was stop posting here, and then whining about Paypal hitting me with the 'VERIFIED' thing. So no more buying used stuff,via CC.                                
I know folks tend to gloss over what they read, and interpret into the written message things that are not actually there.                 
So no worry, I am just fine about my stereo and listening to music. 100%.                  
I actually feel confused why folks think that, though  re-reading my original post I can see the  not clear way I wrote about it.        
And really, as far as Paypal snafu, I should stop, and just listen to what I have.. (which I am and will be doing)   ((Though naturally I have long and EXPENSIVE list of stuff I still want to add to my stereo)) 
And the nice comments from well wishers makes me feel good and thank you again.

Why not sit down in your listening chair ( couch) and stop to think a bit. Why am I involved in this hobby? To gather the most expensive and arguably, better or best new equipment or model that has been just released? 
Or— because I love good music and it is always swirling around in my mind. If you feel ‘depressed ‘ cause you’re spending to much and possibly, need to HAVE the latest update or ( lol) buy a new amplifier for $18,000....- after you sell your 3rd , 6 month old Preamp for $7,000 —— you’re in this hobby for the wrong reasons! Or better yet, enjoy and read about equipment; and how damn silly MOST AUDIOPHILES ARE: which could include me..? I dare not say!! But I’m having a few exciting new pieces of gear coming up for “ true critical evaluation” quite soon! Come on by!! https://www.thesoundadvocate.com
