Audio nirvana is real, but not tangible......it’s a state of mind.
Yes.....and no....for me it has turned out to be a little of both. When nirvana is real, then the answer becomes "yes....but for how long??" You can get pretty familiar with those nagging little dissatisfactions along the way when system building....the ones that seem to take the longest to overcome maybe in particular. But, once they indeed were All Truly Gone, then I found that to be a game changer. Looking back at it now, I can recall the exact point at which the balance tipped.
Will it still be nirvana for me 10 yrs from now?? I don’t know. But, then again I’m 56. Maybe the better question for me now is will my hearing still be good enough for me to enjoy it. But, if anyone is going to take at least a decade or so to slog it out like I did (lots of mods and DIY, etc), then my advice is to not leave it too late...! Lol
