I love this hobby-

I was just sitting here tonight listening to music and was thinking how much music enriches my life. When I was young, music played an important factor in my life, although I never had what I would call a good system for playback. Once I got married and immediately began having a family, it seems music got thrown way on the back burner not to move back towards the front for many many years.

Now that the kids are grown (2 just need to be kicked from the nest) music is once again an important part of my life. No, my system is not SOTA, actually it is very vintage. But it brings me much joy and is best system I have ever owned. I am at a happy place though and don't feel the need to do more than just enjoy what I have been blessed with.

I don't have many music or audio loving friends, so I just wanted to share my joy with you all. I know from reading these pages that we all are passionate about these hard earned gifts, but ain't they grand? ;o)

We don't all have the same ears, identical or even similar gear and systems, nor enjoy the same music. But one thing I think we can all agree, life without music sucks.

Thanks for tolerating my rambling.

Steve
