Doe you enjoy your listening to music and your system more with others or alone?


It’s no doubt that us as Audiophiles spend a lot of time listening to music by ourselves. It’s just the way
it’s, a hobby most others don’t understand. So do we prefer to listen by ourselves or is it more enjoyable 
with others? For myself, I generally enjoy listening by myself. Usually when another Audiophile friend is over listening it becomes more about the sound ( system ) than the music. Also, they only want to hear
music that brings out the best in the system and for myself let’s just listen to what’s playing. 
Non-Audiophiles tend to get bored easily if they don’t like the music, and can be even more picky about
what music you play for them. Non-Audiophiles put no value in the sound. They only want to hear their favorite music and that can be even more frustrating. At least acknowledge it ( sound ) even if you can’t hear the difference.
For myself it’s more enjoyable alone, but that doesn’t mean all the time, or does it?

Alone definitely unless it is my bro who enjoys good sound, not like my friends and family who prefer their iPhones.
With the right people works for me, alone is good to listen more intensely. Best one ever was a Porsche pal who after one song sat there as if in trance and said, "Please, play another. Please."
Ill have some of whatever he's got (not the Porshe bit)
It depends on my frame of mind and the situation.
But I mostly prefer listening to music alone (as if anyone cares... lawl).
 Once my guest see's the set up i't's over. Novice or audiophile.  Not listening to the music much anymore. Too much distraction and judgement. Dark room , 3 songs, Female vocal, rock, and classical. Turn up the lights and let them see it the stuff. Better experience for the guest. and myself.
This work's for me and a lot more fun.
