Has Radicalizing the Rig Led to Revolutionized Listening?


As I have aggressively elevated my system over time, I find I’m drawn increasingly away from electronic instruments and toward acoustic. The unmatchable expression conveyed through acoustic instruments and unadulterated vocals is reinforcing the system gains reciprocally. 

Then again, it could be aging. ;)

Your thoughts and experiences. This is not competition. :)

Currently listening to Angelica by Monica Ramos.

Radicalizing,revolutionized and aggressively... quite the interesting choice of words when going acoustic... just sayin

I just turned 60 a bit back. My goal was to be able to explore and enjoy all kinds of music.  I spend as much time as I can doing it.  More than ever.   Thank you hifi!
Needlebrush, I tend to attack hobbies for advancement. Learned to ski downhill at 27 and was doing black diamond moguls in 3 seasons. My instructor, a Dutch, ultra-smooth skiing friend, upon request took me to increasingly difficult slopes.

One day I complained, "I’m doing a lot of falling." He replied, "If you’re not falling, you’re not learning. " I said seriously, "You will never see anyone fall more than I will!"

Pushing on the moguls I fell forward, backwards, sideways all day. That evening it became evident i had pulled all the muscles in my neck, and developed Wry Neck, which resolved with muscle relaxants.

I’m a bit more moderate in building audio systems to push performance.

Conversely, I prefer melodic, relaxing acoustic music.


Remind me to “ attack “ my collector cars, cameras and books and music collection.....perhaps I’ll become the samurai audiophile.... can anyone take a tongue in cheek joke 
anymore without responding like It’s a mortal attack ?
