**Do NOT tell you dealer** You'll never get another invite to the holiday party. But seriously, congrats that's what this is all about. Be sure to share, don't hog the sweet spot from your friends and family!
Has this ever happened to you?
Has it ever happened to you that you sit down to listen to your system one day and just go “Wow!”, THIS is the sound I have been looking for? I have recently been hyper focused on incremental improvements that I have been making, and was really just listening to “the sound” of new components or cables but not actually listening to the music. Recently, I sat down to listen to music, and I am hearing exactly what I had hoped it should like in my listening room. I am feeling something new for me in this hobby for really the first time - contentment.
Curious the hear about your experiences.

Hedonic Treadmill
There is a name for the quest…
We ( I ) am just running ancient lines of code… maybe Neanderthal and other you can’t escape them for long.. it is after all.. how you got to wherever here is. Migration notwithstanding the current myopic view is nothing new.. my people ( yes I know factually because I’m not afraid of a dna test ) crossed a land bridge and a different ( topographical ) Ocean… running a line of code “ I wonder what is over there ? and is it better ? The grading criteria as simple as hierarchy of needs. The audio journey is a luxury good but no different really… it is a hedonic treadmill
Audiophile / music lover know thyself … It is wonderful that the OP has found A stopping / resting point weather a lush verdant valley or a high peak exposing even higher points beyond are just as valid…
There are two old saws:
Familiarity breeds contempt but absence makes the heart ( ear ) grow fonder … Glad to know some good people here…. |
@cleeds @grislybutter @mulveling @nonoise …. fellow searchers and good kind souls… stay on the quest but rest awhile and savor |
and sorry i forgot @ghdprentice … and many others…. |
