«40% Of Audiophiles Are Dying And No One Is Doing Anything About It!»

"Rant said that view of time was set up so folks won't live forever. It's the planned obsolescence we've all agreed to...'Nothing says you have to swallow this,' Rant told me. 'You can always just die."

A lot of what the artist is trying to convey comes through in his/her music video. Most of it is on youtube. Watching music videos on youtube with a big rig is quite rewarding, one of my rigs has a htpc and a screen in the room for the same purpose.

The audio is compressed or what not on youtube, but, worthwhile anyways. My processor salvages it to some extent.

But I agree with Jay in the video about the lack of visual stimulation. I have tried to overcome that - many times at my place we watch high quality concert videos on the big screen, DJing through tracks just like an audio session. I run the audio through my Oppo BDP-105 so the sound is quite good. I also mix in a few comedy bits and such.

This seems quite similar subject matter to another post. I’ve copied this from there:

Well, since most of this community stays in its silo, it is no wonder that you A) think highly of yourself and that therefore B) fret about your replacement value.

I have listening sessions once a week, and more than half of my guests are in their late 20s to early 30s. The experience is a revelation for them, and many come back, some regularly.

yes, one wants me to will my system and collection to him but I think that my niece is anxiously waiting for me to keel over. She is at the head of the line. She’s early 20s.

@bolong - I've read them all, and 'Rant' is one of my very favorite books from Chuck. It was actually the first one I read... 

I have two houses full of audio gear. What happens to it, I don't care. I've been giving some to my nephew as his Dad exposed him to audio. He has a pretty high end system so he's not interested in my Mid-Fi stuff. If it ends up going to the thrift store, that's OK with me, I've had a lifetime of enjoying what I have.
