Whoops sorry for the multiple post
Taking time (and time outs) to enjoy the ride...
Hello All,
I posted this in another forum as well....You know I just read something on here recently (may have been referenced by @millercarbon, can't remember) and it was brilliant (and true-myself being guilty of this). It was I believe a quote from Allan Parsons "Audiophiles don't use their systems to listen to our music, they use our music to listen to their systems". I know not only did I get a kick out of it, but I thought 'hmm that's actually true in my case'. It was a good reminder for me. I love the chase (wish it wasn't so damn expensive) and the thrill of new gear-nothing like it! I'm still shaking my head when I listen and enjoying the pi$$ of what my new Bifrost 2 did for my cd collection. But every once in a while it's good to keep that in mind and just enjoy the music (again I'm totally speaking for myself). For me I can have the best of both worlds as long as I remember that. Enjoy the chase but also the ride along the way making pit stops every so often to reflect and take it all in.:)
If indeed that was you @millercarbon (or whomever it was) I can't thank you enough for referencing that...It really hit home!
