AA for us


Is there such a place for us audiophiles: Audiophile's Anonymous? I feel that at this point that I am showing all signs of an addict and I am no longer a functioning addict, unfortunately. 

The only upside is that it is distracting me from other harmful activities such as watching the news x hours a day.

 I got there without going to a single meeting. No 12 steps for me, more like a skip and a jump and I'm done. Kinda. It crept up incrementally, like in that Niagra skit but no one strangled me in the Carillon Bell Tower. I knew when I got my current speakers that I was done.

The itch is there for bigger speakers but I'm room limited and that's a walk in the park dealing with it. As for the news, don't worry about it. An educated person is a good thing, despite what some think.

All the best,
Nonoise

Or a tone deaf person that calls that being educated, gaggle of them at ASR.

If this is a real post, sorry to hear this.

IMHO, it’s the undefinability of it all. Whether you are unhappy and can’t find what you want or you ARE happy and curious about what out there is better.

 

How does one get off the merry-go-round?

@cdc real post. Very astute observation about whether 

unhappy and can’t find what you want or you ARE happy and curious about what out there 

Both, and in between; when it's an addiction, it's about the feeling of wanting more and something different, and not being able to stop.
