Would you move to a bigger house if you could just to have a better listening room ?

Yeah, Burlington VT and surroundings, two hours from Montreal, I think. Montreal is certainly thought of as the most European city outside Europe.

Two record stores in Littleton ? Maybe it is a "hipsteria" but still a good sign overall, I suppose.

Speaking of Europe and real estate prices, you can buy small house in French countryside for not too much, and you can buy small apartment in Finnish North countryside for $25k. Average income there is lower but the prices are often lower too. American income in Europe, that's what some expatriates from the US enjoy.

yes I meant it as a good sign. As for Europe, I would go North. Not as far as Finland, but anywhere north of Latitude 53 to not roast in the July heats. 

I did 40 years ago…and I will never move to a smaller place.

Home theater wasn’t a big deal when I moved here, but when it came into vogue, I had a prime place for it.

Hifi and home theatre are a huge part of my life, and having an amazing place to enjoy it was the primary factor in deciding on a place to live.

What listening room size and shape do you consider best ? I guess, it should be quite big but not huge.
