Why do people care what their speaker wants?


Or amp. Or DAC, pre-amp, or whatever. Fill in the blank. Why does anyone care? Are speakers so haughty they get all moody and pouty if you don't give them what they want? I thought the whole point was to have a system that sounds the way we want it to sound? So why all the people asking what goes with what? What do they care? Why?

You guys make me laugh! I think, just like the pursuit of the ideal and unattainable woman, audiophilia is all about the pursuit, not the final conquest. If our systems actually did sound exactly like real live music we'd still be underwhelmed. I think a lot of us are searching for the idea of some kind of transcendent listening experience. And that search, in and of itself, is what makes this fun (or sometimes maddening). It's an expensive and weird hobby for sure, but it's probably better than a lot of other vices!
Hate to break it to ya, but you need a better system. The line she sings is Girls just want to have funds.
Just think. My response to this post, which btw, was the first, was removed because I used a familiar word for coitus! It wasn't profane either. It ended up devolving from whence it evolved!
