Speaking of emotional involvement, my system has taken a leap in this area with the latest change I've made. I swapped out the Crimson Audio interconnects between my DAC and pre for Cerious Technolgies Graphene Extremes. I thought the Crimsons were pretty darn good for the money, but the GEs, at the same price, easily surpassed them. The "realness" of voices & instruments is almost scary. That, combined with a much better sense of the air and space around them, draws me further into the music.
One of the best things about the GE ICs is that they are affordable for most anyone who is serious about enjoying their music.
