Dr, Jekyll and Mr. Hyde


I find I gave two competing personalities when listening to my Stereo.  There’s Dr. Jekyll who loves music and is thrilled by great music in great sound.  Then there is my alter ego, Mr. Hyde, who scrutinizes every little sound emanating from the speakers and looks for something to criticize.  Mr Hyde only listens to the music to hear what it can give him sonically. These two characters are at war in me until one wins out and I can go on with my listening session.

How about you?

Dr. Jekyll sits back and revels in the sound surrounding me in synesthetic imagery. My Hyde starts to worry when the cartridge gets to the inner part of the vinyl, knowing there might be distortion  and smearing.
