Are all Audiophiles masocists?
Mahgister...*L* Thanks for the confidence there....but, after 40+ yrs., one develops certain 'auto-self preservation routines', at least in regard to sudden chills of atmosphere and dark silence.... Likened to the hint of ozone before lightning strikes way too close...even if it misses, one looks for burnt extremities.... Mental nimbleness may help....but some quickness may just sink one into the quicksand sandtrap, where one's head becomes the ball on the tee. (....and she doesn't read any of this....to my knowledge....;)...) |
"See you watching me like a hawk I don't mind the way you talk But if you touch me somethin's got to give I live the life I love and I love the life I live So if you see me and think I'm wrong Don't worry 'bout me just let me go My sweet life ain't nothing but a thrill I live the life I love and I love the life I live My diamond ring and my money, too Tomorrow night these may belong to you These girls move me at their will I live the life I love and I love the life I live I may bet a thousand on a bet this time One minute later I can't cover your dime Tomorrow night I might be over the hill I just want you to know, baby, the way I feel Oh, I'm rockin' when you pass me by Don't talk about me because I could be high Please forgive me if you will I live the life I love and I love the life I live." I love the life I live by Willie Dixon |
To answer the question it's almost certainly more pain than pleasure for me! A jump has us thrilled. But how soon before the system is driving us nuts and we are only living for the next upgrade or tweak that will remove those little niggling things (that we weren't even aware of before the last upgrade) which are driving us crazy. Every true Audiophile I know is almost certainly certifiable. 😇😇😎 Net/net It's a toss up between OCD and masochism. |
