Good old days


I remember when I was happy that everything I played on my stereo sounded basically the same,  without a care for soundstagjng and the like. This occurs to me now as I sit in my car enjoying the hell out of everything played.  All I’m thinking about is the music.  Maybe it’s time for me to pack in my high end aspirations.

It is hard to get off the hi fi obsession and just go back to enjoying music for its own sake.  I think I was in the same place as the OP about a year ago and eventually I just decided eff it, the system sounds great, the secondary systems sound fine, bluetooth headphones and car stereo is also pretty good, and am back to enj9ying music again.

"...As I mentioned near the close of the last record, this record you are now playing is another example of the Completion Backward Principle. If you can possibly manage the time, please play both sides at one meeting.."

Firm believer of the CBP.

Started out, just enjoying..."This could sound a sh*tload Better...."
Starts harmless enough, but... 🙄

When a ’nearby neighbor’ of the Mission (next door, mere feet) decided to share his ’concert’, I lurked until the end of the ’side’ (assuming lp...)...

Follow with Dire Straits, pleasantly loud.

Time changes, and me with it. Now, I just amuse myself with whatever does. ;)

CBP: Get back to where we both belong.... Enjoying ourselves by being here now.

Enough drivel...

....and 'she's still around...

 

I want to thank all of you who have offered compassion and suggestions.
