Have any of you done this


In the last 6 months I have been on Audiogon more than I listen to music. I like reading all the discussions that take place and also the classifieds. Maybe I'm just bored with my system since I haven't upgraded anything in the last year. I'm still enjoying the hobby but not listening much. Is it time for me to see a therapist or is this just normal audiophile behavior.

I think we all go through stages where we stop listening for a while. Maybe boredom with the system, cd/record collection, or maybe just interests drift to other things.
These forums can be fun and/or informative and maybe somewhat addictive. But before you comb the pages for a therapist go buy some new music or clean your cable connections and see what results you get from that.
I spend a lot of time on the web, my system and computer are in the same room...I'm always listening while I surf.

Before the internet, I was usually reading while I listened...pretty much the same thing.

If I'm connecting from home, I'm almost always listening while I'm on any audio forum. Away from home, a different story.

I was doing the same thing. My computer/music server is located in an office 20' from my listening room. I was using my main rig for background music. Life changed when my Son needed a new laptop for school. We bought a Macbook w/wireless which he uses only one day a week. The rest of the time it is sitting on a table, to the right of my listening chair. Having a computer in my listening room has tripled my time with my rig.
Not me, I'm never on AudiogoN. 60% of the time I'm on AudiogoN 0% of the time. :^)
