How do you find time to enjoy your $$$ speakers and system?

In college, the music didn’t stop until late into the night.  Every Friday night the local DJ would play Martian Boogie (Brownsville Station).  It was hard for a while after college working in silence at the office.  I have had a stereo system ever since college.  Some years I would listen nearly everyday and some years maybe just a couple of hours a week.  Since retiring and building my dream system, the hour meter on my preamp shows it is powered on 1250 hours/year.  I listen about 3-5 days/week- sometimes in the morning and sometimes in the evening.

Streaming with Qobuz has opened up a whole world of music at my fingertips.  It’s great finding those 60s and 70s songs that I have not heard in years as well as new stuff that I would never get to hear otherwise.  Things are not like back in the day when we discovered new music on the radio.  So I can play my favorite records and CDs or I can explore and find new gems to listen to on Qobuz.

I turn it on. I’m not trying to be funny but you don’t have to sit and listen to it like your head is locked into a vice. Turn it on and listen to it if you can and whenever you can. Go about your business. Enjoy your system. My two cents….

People always find the time to do the things that really matter to them. 

While listening I’ll often read this forum as in right now. I’ll bet I’m not alone. 

I work 2 full-time jobs this year. Luckily, I work from home. If it was not for my stereo, especially my RAAL headphones for late night work, no chance I would be working so many hours. I also have a 6-year-old, though this year he is not getting my full attention.

Music is playing in my home for about 18 hours a day.
