Diminishing Returns


I’ve reached a point, after much tweaking in my system thanks to Audiogon, I’m moving away from the forum. I’ve gotten to a place where I’m so satisfied with my system that further improvements, while I’m sure they will work, I don’t care.  I used to read  with great interest the weekly listing of the most popular posts.  I’m now finding it boring.  I think It’s time to get off the Merry-Go-Round.
Aside from the “Music” posts” that will be it.

I mean, if you don’t wish to post and read other comments, you could just stop doing it, without making a grand pronouncement.  Doing so implies that in your own mind, you are an indispensable Grand Poohbah who has minions hanging on your every proclamation and who can’t continue if you desert us.  Three easy nailed it.  I guess that you didn’t realize that is how the rest of us wind up perceiving you, but that is how it comes off.
  As for your discernment of Classical Music....do you really think that the Rachmaninoff Second is the Greatest Symphony of the 20th Century?  What about Sibelius 4-7, Shostakovich 1/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/15, Copland 3, Mahler 9&10, about half a dozen by Weinberg, Vaughn Williams 2/3/5/6/7/8/9, Nielsen 4/5....compared with all of that the Rach2 is cotton candy
