Is audio a kind of spiritual journey?

Hi,

Some weeks ago, I read a post in another audio forum that tried to explain that somehow the search for good sound is a spiritual journey.

It mad me think and I wonder, are we just searching for good sound? maybe that good sound is opening some windows or gates in us?

What lies at the essence of what experience when when our system sounds great?

what effect does that produces in us? is it just mere pleasure?
is there something more to it?
when we feel transported by the sound of a melody do we transcend the ordinary?

What do you think?
