If there’s an audiophile exit ramp, this ain’t it…


Audiogon and the audio press, I mean. I finally have the system I was aiming for and had imagined for my future, as conjured from the cryptic pages of stereophile etc. — incredible transparency, scale, and ‘realness’ — but whenever I’m drawn to these sites/pages, as I have been for two years, I am confronted again with doubt and a vague longing for ‘perfection’ in a new purchase. I just want to enjoy the music.

Im ready for the audiophile exit ramp, and this ain’t it…

Most of us chase the dragon with varying degrees of intensity; and, we all have to deal with that in our own way. The main question is do you have the discipline to control this; or, do you let life circumstance (spouse, retirement, job loss, medical issues, etc) make your decision for you.

But, to me, the wild card is that audiophilia is probably our favorite and most expensive hobby. God knows we all need one of those. So, this allows you the option to make exceptions or justify continuing to chase the dragon......and, that's where the conflict comes from.
