Once you have decided to flee the merry-go-round: attach yourself to a sensible woman, one intolerant of aesthetic or other excess; seek a career keeping you on the move -- now nowhere to build a rig or lend your ear to proper gear --; force and circumstance failing, renounce, give your toys and coin away; in the absence of means no merry-go-round will prevail. Notwithstanding this, be free - enjoy!
How does one get off the merry-go-round?
I'm interested in hearing from or about music lovers who have dropped out of the audio "hobby." I don't mean you were content with your system for 6 weeks. I mean, you stood pat for a long time, or--even better--you downsized...maybe got rid of your separates and got an integrated.
(I suppose if you did this, you probably aren't reading these forums any more.)
If this sounds like a cry for help, well, I dunno. Not really. I'm just curious. My thoughts have been running to things like integrated amps and small equipment racks and whatnot even as I continue to experiment and upgrade with vigor (I'm taking the room correction plunge, for example.) Just want to hear what people have to say on the subject.
