I want to be moved and have the music touch my soul!

I think there needs to be a new profession. Audiophile Psychologist. There are clearly psychological barriers and expectations that exist that get in the way of music enjoyment. There are clearly factors that enhance and improve music enjoyment. Many of these factors are internal. Many are technical. Many are musical.

A good Audiophile Psychologist would have to have training in psychology, much of it in the same way a sports psychologist does. He would also have to have a good understanding of SQ and audio tech. It would even be better if he had several advanced systems in his clinic for testing and training as well as a large collection of high quality music.

Seems like a great way to write off a clinic with multiple listening rooms and great equipment.....all for clinical purposes of course.

OP: Don't forget to have your turn signal fluid changed monthly.

I don’t need an Audiophile Psychologist. I want to be one. You know.....how does that DAC make you feel? Did your mother listen to vinyl when you were small?

Good luck getting past the 'audiophile couch' you use in your office? : )

It will have to be positioned perfectly in relation to the speakers of course.

Of course. Perfectly isolated and with the correct materials, etc. as well.

It maybe that your bored with the music you have collected or choose to listen to.  Sometimes I get bored with 'Western music' so I listen to Arabic music (old & new), wow that was like discovering Rock'nRoll all over again. Their drum beats are so fresh, different and so comprehensive.  Their approach to singing and composition of songs are so inventive.  Its very hard for me not to be passionately or at least musically involved in their music and to date its never been boring for me.  Its just a suggestion, try a new genre of music or even other music from different countries and continents, it may work for you.  At the end of the day music is a subjective choice and I just hope there is still something out there which will move you. 

Find out where and what your soul is and everything else will fall in place .

Well I found my answer. A pair of Revel Gem speakers, DIY subs and a minidsp SHD with Dirac room correction. The music puts me in a trance now. Amazing difference. I think the SHD cam make i big difference in any system.
