Its the recording stupid!!

Sure, this happens sometimes and I will go grab something that I'm intimately familiar with and know how it should sound.  It just so happens that Aja is my go-to for setting up new gear, especially making cartridge changes on my turntable.

I think the key is you asked if this ever happens when listening to your stereo. This should never happen when listening to your stereo. This should only happen when listening to some stranger's stereo. Even then not often. Like maybe the first time you hear it. After that, if you can't figure out what's what, well on second thought if I say that someone's gonna be triggered, there goes the post, and nobody learns how big a deal I think it is that you don't know what you're hearing.

Either that or this was just another roundabout way of plugging Aja. In that case, nevermind.

U're just too anxious, music should calm you down, but not making you irritated or depressed

Well,

Younger, yes. As you age, experience adds up, you have confidence in your system you have accumulated, then it is both disturbing and rewarding but not alarming.

We have learned to listen intently, and put together systems that reveal the good and the bad. Thus disturbing by the knowledge the people involved in the recording of great artists 'failed' in their part.

Rewarding because once again our great system reveals it's ability to discern.

Jazz, Classical, Instrumental, poor recordings are likely to linger without many if any replays, while singer songwriters who I relate to emotionally will be replayed with enjoyment, the great recordings of that type fully treasured.

Someone like Sade, IMO the Queen of Rhythm, as well as songwriter, some recordings are not as great as others, but they make the rotation.

It's a chance for me to repeat: Stop chasing tweaks, start chasing great recordings!
