Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

Music production. And IT in general.

But specifically the music production; started off as "I'll by FL Studio and muck around with it" to "I need ALL THE VSTs!". I've sunk like $2500 into it in the last two months (which is a hell of a lot of money to me), and I keep buying shit for it.

Am I any good at it? Fuck no. But it's not stopping me from keeping at it and buying shit I probably don't need :P

And the IT stuff consists of rack-mount servers and Pi's. I've sunk around $25k into it all over the last 12 years.

If I wanted to buy a DAC for my home media server do you have a recommendation?
