A light-hearted essay on loving music vs the audiophilia obsession

Excellent piece! Very well written.
In my case I was a classical pianist who had a hi-fi loving friend.
Long story, short, he influenced me , and I soon became more interested in the sound than the music. I couldn’t believe the fact that I wasn’t really listening to the music anymore.
This was a very long time ago. And still fighting the battle.

Simao,

“Your first example of commenting on the sonic clarity is akin to someone watching a video clip of a particularly poignant event of movie commenting on the video quality.”

So true!
