Things we cannot be bothered by anymore


Occurred to me today that I have dropped stuff that I cannot just be bothered by anymore, and wondering what some of you out there have let go of as well 

Me (lean mostly into analog)

- Lifting a tonearm lever to cue a platter - no more - years off my life

- Carbon brushes, cart cleans with every spin or two - years off my life

- Ugly racks that look like ones I had in 10th grade, though cost 20x more - out 

- Listening at low volume levels to gauge audiophile purity

- A/B'ing streaming platforms 

Finale - $50 audiophile pressings "remastered from the original master tapes" that sound like sanitized cheese spread - magic gone, warped, drop-outed, bubbled, and gain-whacked (there are exceptions for sure)

 

How about you?

I cannot be bothered by/with reading about how much better vinyl is than digital.  (Even if it is that much better.) 

Luckily none of that applies to me no turntable, happy with my streaming setup and listening to Class A SET amps. wink

Cable/fuse arguements.

I don't care. Buy them/try them/keep them/return them. Don't care.

Do whatever you want.
