How serious are you?


On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being totally obsessed, how serious are you about this hobby?  Explain please. Thanks.

Listening is an 8.Upgrading is a 3.The day isn't complete unless I can settle in front of the system and listen to music for an hour at least.

Probably 11. Explanation?  Playing with this stuff for 54 years. Look at my "All Out Assault" system Thankfully, I've got what I want. Oh, the CD player has been upgraded....

 

 

Some guys care about sports or big trucks or fancy guns. Those things mean nothing to me. I'm into music.

 

Same here -- both listening and playing!  

About the same as Cleeds. I love the music, and came to love and be enthused about the gear as well. Always loved to work on stuff as well, so that became a large part of it.

Still a great hobby for us old guys, I hope my hearing goes last!

I am not sure what defines "serious," or whether you are asking about the music or about home audio reproduction specifically, but in terms of dollars invested and system optimization, most would probably say I am at least a little serious.

From my perspective, I am fortunate to have a nice sounding system and to be done with the urge to upgrade. I enjoy listening to music whether reproduced or live, and lately I enjoy whichever system I am listening to, but I am not obsessed about any of it.
