How do you get Happy as an Audiophile?

@larry5729 Curious- how big is your room and how far away from your speakers do you sit? |
Great responses. Lots of +1s. I'm a bit of both. I'd be lying if I didn't admit that I love a well thought out upgrade or tweak that pays off in spades. I reach for that reference (to me) material to marvel at the SQ. A bit of A Nervosa. But then there are lots of days I could care less and I spot a CD or a vinyl that I've not heard in X years and it's a rush all over again. Or a favorite I've played weekly that still triggers that "omg" feeling. |
