Yeah, russashe, you pegged me pretty closely. I do pretty much push music to the top of my discretionary shopping list. Let the finger-waggers (have I used this term before?) continue to wag their fingers. I'm going to continue to listen to my stereo, and get new gear when I'm convinced an upgrade is warranted. I'm gonna play my musical instruments until my fingers fall off.
A real "wake up call" available to most....High End Audio vs. Mainstream......
Obviously you are familiar with AudiogoN and, likely, have a decent system. I have known this, but a great visual on what most people use for sound reproduction is a Craigslist in you area. If you have one or more market Craigslist available, check out what is for sale for "sound reproduction" on those sites. I thought I knew how bad it was, but it was beyond my imagination. But I guess that is the way it is with many things Americans buy to make noise, drive or eat at. Locally it is all under "electronics". ebay is somewhat better, but still a great deal more items you would not want vs. those you would.
In music, electronics, cars and so much more....."the road less traveled" is the best path. The poem is actually "the road not taken".
