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.

Yes that’s what it’s all about.  As Hans says, enjoy the music.

Yes, many times. It's actually a fairly easy task with a properly built and acoustically treated listening room when your goal is simply to reach that level of audio nirvana on a specific rig, whether it is streaming, CDs or vinyl. The real challenge starts when you strive to achieve the same level of sound quality for all rigs. Enjoy the journey.

Yes.  It stays there until you experience the next "whack you upside the head" moment, or hearing loss.  Whichever comes first.

Speaking of native, internal coding; recent geopolitical events have probably been rearranging things in such a manner that it is effecting musical appreciation as well - for better or for worse depending on how an individual's orientation has been altered. A most important component is our ears and the brain circuitry backing them up. Neurological stress is akin to "noise on the line." So are solar outbursts.
