@larry5729 Hi Larry. I found your comments very interesting. Music has always been a huge part of my life. My wife, not so much. (music that is). A few years back, my wife asked if I minded if she sat and played word on her tablet while I listed to music. Of course I didn't mind. What started as her just wanting to be more involved with my passion, has morphed into a music date for two hours most every evening. While she still doesn't share my attachment to my entire music collection, her taste in music has expanded greatly. She doesn't care to understand the specifics of my system, but loves the esthetics of the room. I can honestly say that music has improved our relationship even though it's for different reasons. The only downside is she fully supports me spending money on new equipment. Not sure that others members on this site can learn anything from my experience but you just never know where our music adventure will lead us?
How do you get Happy as an Audiophile?
There’s an interesting, relatively modern take on mental health called Positive Psychology. While not without it’s faults and detractors, PP has a very interesting approach. Instead of asking questions on the axis of illness and diagnosis PP asks questions on the scale of happiness:
What is it that makes you more or less content with your life and in your pursuits? How can these actions, events or states be codified and applied as general principles?
In the spirit of PP then I ask:
How do you get happy? What advice would you give an audiophile that asks "What is satisfying about being an audiophile, and what are the approaches that get me there? Do you personally know the answers for yourself? "
