Don't do anything!

A couple months ago I posted a question on the forums that I was looking for the next level of imaging from my system and was contemplating better speakers.  As per usual there were many responses of varying degrees advice.

Since then I have done nothing to pursue this next level.  The reason for my inaction - my system is breaking.  What I mean by that is I had made a few upgrades to my system  - which were new power cable for the amp, newer speaker cables and finally a cartridge that has about 150 hrs on it. All of these changes are moving from the break in stage into what they can do for better sound.  So now my system is maturing and delivering on what I am looking for.  So the moral of the story is - leave it alone, stop tweaking.  Let your system evolve.

Thanks for the advice fellow music lovers!

I didn’t say that right what I meant was my HEARING experience continues to evolve.

At the already obvious risk of proving that I'm a outlier on a quest of being a nattering naysayer of that which might be obvious....

We break in....the equipment?

Not so much.

It's fabricated with inorganic materials, essentially to varied specifications.

You are not.

For a sloshy collection of organic materials with a 'wet-wire' com/control/feedback system prone to error big and small.....with a near-terrifying resolve that 

"...we know what we're doing..."

THAT, Dear friends, is why I have restraint in comments about your system. it's components, and etc.

I'm not used to how it sounds in your space.

Likely, a hellava lot different than mine.

Gimme a week....I can sleep in the bathtub.

A cup of coffee (Black....like my attitude...) will extract me better than turning the cold tap on.....

I'll leave your spouse/sig,other alone....

I've already one of my own.....don't need such complications.....

OP

 

It’s probably your brain acclimating to the new sounds.  Does it matter as long as you are content, although I suspect that the upgrade itch will soon bite again
