Turned back into a music lover

Being thrilled by audio and loving music are mutually exclusive?? 🤔

My intention was not to put down seeking good sound, or say music and sound are mutually  exclusive. Rather, I’m pointing out that once you’ve ACHIEVED good sound, the next step is to enjoy the music and not obsess over how your system sounds.  Concentrate rather on how your good sounding system ENHANCES the glories of the music your playing.
 

Listening must be learned, acoustically and musically speaking...

Listening acoustical experiments has nothing to do with upgrades obsession...

Listening music can even be internalized and without sound....

Consumerism marketing programmation  explain the rest and lack of creativity and thinking too...

Talk CLassical does have a "subforum" called Hi Fi, but it isn't very active.  And some of the posters there beat anyone here for know-it-all arrogance

Having  known many 1st class Classical artists  it was painful for me  as they put their  all year after  year,

When you throw all you have for years the stress is  unreal  be you a soldier 

or a pianist  !

I am very  happy  that rvpiano  came thru  without PTSD ,(no joke)
