You are correct on all counts.  I have owned a Goldumund turntable, Koetsu
MC cartridge and others, Mark Levinson amps, Audio Research preamps and
amps, MIT speaker cables and many I have mercifully forgotten.  Then the
hobby was hi-fi.  Now the hobby is music.  I am happy as a little clam with
my kitchen hi-fi, or when I go wild, my AR turntable with Linn arm and
cartridge. Kind of like photography - the image is the thing, the gear is
just a tool.
