Do you spend more time analyzing the sound of your system, worrying it could be better?

I spend time listening to music. The system disappears in the room and is replaced by musicians all in their proper position on stage. The original performance reproduced.

Isn’t everyone’s system like that? Isn’t that the reason we have good systems?

To point to what bpoletti just said, I became involved with hi-fi audio to become more engaged and satisfied with this beautiful, precious thing called music.  If I then engage in inordinate fretting and anxiety, that’s on me.  I’ve accepted that this is my personality and that I need to balance these proclivities with healthy gratitude  for what many would consider indulgent extravagances.  
 

There’s nothing wrong with people whose enjoyment is the “process” itself: analyzing, tweaking, experimenting, etc.  If people do what they want and it ain’t hurtin’ anybody, no harm no foul.

Listen to the music dammit.  NOT the sound.

Lean back in your chair, put your feet up.  Relax, enjoy, and try to stop worrying.

@jerryg123 , I ordered a Ducati Diavel 1260S in Black and Steel! Its due in end of May. I got the touring package and the racing exhaust with it. I'm going to put it all on myself. Nothing like Italian tinkering........well maybe British tinkering:-)

What do you come to an audio forum for?
