Default Time to stop with Ref6?

I have owned many arc preamps, sp9 mk2, ref 2, ref3, ref5, ref5se (twice) and now ref6. So of course when the the 6se was announced I jumped right in the queue. Even though I am COMPLETELY happy with the ref 6... I felt the upgrade from 5se was the biggest upgrade yet, but the 5 to 5se was the second biggest upgrade. So maybe the 6 to 6se is large, but I gotta say, $2500 for new caps and some upgraded wire is a bit troubling to me now. Honestly I think the COVID shutdown has me reevaluating some things. And this update is one of them.
Any long time arc users made the upgrade? Thoughts? Is it just me considering jumping off the hype train with the ref6?
