Encouraging people to consider a traditional 2 channel stereo system.

I have shared my passion and hobby with others but find most people are not that into the equipment.  The good news is that most people I know love music so however they enjoy it is fine with me.  I have my endgame setup and a portable Bluetooth speaker and a lot of equipment in between.  The one constant is my music on Qobuz.  I’m listening wherever I am and loving it.  

Never in the history of music reproduction has music being more consumed and readily available to the masses.  Portability is the driving force

What's wrong with headphones? I've got a great 2-channel system. I've also got a great headphone system. Having one does not automatically exclude the other. Headphones do not automatically equate to earbuds on an iPhone. 

I would believe that that the vast majority of us here are either Baby Boomers or Gen X.

Think back to your 20’s, if someone 30+ years older than you tried to get you involved in their hobby that most likely started when they were in their 20’s.

Now, try to put yourself in that mindset in 2025, then imagine some old guy trying to get you into a traditional 2 channel audio system.

When a conversation gets political that is painfully obvious.
