I have a hard time these days with ‘audiophiles’, since I no longer consider myself one. Had all the high end gear, Mac system, Levinson system, Krell etal’. Then one day while moving hooked up an old Sansui receiver and a pair of EPI 100’s along with my turntable to spin records while we packed. My wife and I ended up sitting on the floor, sipping wine and listening to record after record, then she says to me, “where have you been keeping this at?”I was enjoying music like I hadn’t in years. Now I’m a music lover. My system consists of what sounds good to me, regardless of age (though it is all vintage) and snob appeal.
I had an enormous collection of gear, and when we moved I spent months listening to each piece. Sold off most all of it, and as mentioned kept what I couldn’t part with sonically. Your “toes tapping” comment should tell you something.
