I am supposed to end this post by saying it’s the best audio that I ever had, that all the fancy gear I’ve since bought has never equaled the joy of that source through my Advent 3 speakers. Sorry, no effing way. Once I was able to start buying better stuff there has been no turning back. Wanting to go back would be like a castaway on a desert island who having been rescued after years insists on ditching fine dining options for a meal of coconuts and raw jelly fish
Exactly!
I remember the old days--people would come over and we would go through the LPs or find an 8-track and we would put something on and pop open some beers and the cake pan would come out from underneath a sofa and someone would roll a joint or the bong would come out . . . it was a lot of fun, but that kind of listening had a limited shelf life. It was a lot of fun, but if it hadn’t have evolved, it wouldn’t still be my hobby. I will never know The Holy Grail or be able to reach out and actually touch the music that I am listening to, but I am a lot closer now than I ever was then.
