Are You A Disciplined Audiophile?


The issue of whether break-in is real aside for now, when you make a change in your system, such as a new component or cable, do you have the discipline to wait before making any other changes?  I usually mark my calendar for a month and perhaps 2 months and try to change nothing else for that period of time so I can better assess exactly what the new thing is doing. But sometimes it’s difficult to wait. IMO, break in is a real thing, both in the component and the listener, but even if you don’t believe components and cables change after a few days, can you wait at least a month to listen to enough music to adjust your ears to what the new thing brings to the system on its own?

No, I'm not disciplined nor in need of any....even from the leathered blonde in harness that beckons me to 'improve' on this series of spaces.....

"Break theses spaces...in....." she coos.....knowing that broken is past tense to us both.....

No limits nor budget.....just ghastly Space.....

There exists spaces that budget and hardware can't cure....

As for break-in.....leave it to the speakers, carts....perhaps the caps, Maybe the new tape heads.....electronics?  Only tubes.....need comply..... ;)

"Tube-rolling" = Phile chewing gum.....*L*

*Disclaimer*  Only teasing for the f'n fun of it..... ;)
