Look at it this way: by having a great system (which is also expensive but not that expensive compared to some other megabuck systems) you also made an investment in the musical education of your kid. He will have the chance to grow up by listening to good music through a high quality system which in the end will shape his tastes and there is a good chance that at 18 he will not be deaf from iPod overusing and won't think there is only mp3 out there.Another point is that even if you have spent 25k for the system you would probably get only half that on the used market, so there is no point in selling if there is no need.
The important thing is to know when to stop. If you like the system just as it is you can use it for years to come. The problem is not those 25k but how much you keep the system, if it's for the long run it is justified; the problems are the compulsive and endless tweaks, upgrades, sells without ever being capable to forget the gear and enjoy the music.
