I don’t post all that often. I used to spend too much time reading equipment threads when I was looking for new gear. Now I mostly scan the music threads and albums for sale. Not really to buy, but for ideas on what music to select from my large vinyl collection. Discussions on classical and jazz have been particularly helpful. Audiogon has enhanced my love for this hobby and the art of music. My bs filter has improved as well.
Is participating in this Forum infringing on and spoiling some of your listening time?
I think the question is listening vs reading. I have a great system that I adore. However, I regularly check my email, read the news and then go to this Forum… all while listening to music. All while not giving my undivided attention my music time.
I do look up frequently and marvel but get it gets a bit boring to just look at the space between the speakers.
Think my eyes need to be engaged as well as my ears.
When at a live performance, I do watch the performers. I don’t close my eyes and just space out.
However, I do frequently enjoy listening to my system and going into a meditative space. But while involved with the Forum, etc, I do split my attention.
