How much do you listen?


After reeading the "how much does it cost?" thread, I began to wonder about the amount of pleasure these systems provide. As far as quantity goes, how many hours a week would you say you are listening to music? With the level of investment in these systems, I guess I'm thinking REALLY listening, not just background music while you wander around the house, but sitting where you can appreciate that you have a 5 or 6 figure instead of a 3 figure system. Please reply in the subject line so it's easier to tabulate later. Thanks!

An almost 20 year old thread!

I was going to ask the same question, but here we are...

I’ll add my hours (hopefully more will chime in). I’d say 10-14 hours for myself per week on average.

Wife. No kids. Full-time job + extra shifts if desired. Late 30’s.
COVID times, 16 hours a week.

Pre COVID maybe 4 hours a week due to travel and other hobbies.


If I am awake for 14 hours a day then about 12 hours a day, even in the shower. One system or another runs perpetually. If you mean ultra serious listening than I would say 1-2 hours daily 48 weeks of the year.
Easily 20 hours plus a week. My main source of entertainment. Also my first choice in entertainment, with the exception of live mesic shows.
