Is Audio nirvana real?

For some it's a journey.  I ran into a bunch of car collectors at lunch.  They were quite happy to have owned and sold lots of cool cars.

Personally, I want something fabulous that I'm happy with and can focus on music and the living room.  While I feel I've developed a discriminating ear, I have to shut it off if I want to enjoy what I have.

At some point too I decided that while I could sometimes hear differences in cables, it was just not worth it. I stuck to things with big payoffs. I use all silver interconnects, and plain speaker wire.  If a system won't sound fabulous with that, it's just not for me.

Your mileage and pleasure of course will vary! :-) But there are some who like the trading and various experiences, including getting to meet people like me (cough cough) and for them it's like taking a road trip. It's not that they want to move so much as they want to see the road.

Best,

Erik

Nirvana is very real.  I'm selling entry level Nirvana for $5,250.

Based on satisfaction derived from our flagship "Total Nirvana", for $55,000, you get most of the happiness and joy most people need for 1/10th the cost.

There's also "Glimps of Nirvana" which is $500 for those just starting to look for happiness, but it works only a few seconds a year.
