I can’t imagine myself with only one hobby. I’m interested in a lot of things and have pursued them over the years. Music is my # 1, so much so, that I don’t consider it a hobby, but my lifestyle. I play drums, I sing and played in the bands, and I play (listen) music...lots of music. But I also have the Corvette..(a C6) and love it too. I’m fortunate enough to live in an area where bikers and car enthusiasts come to run on our local roads. I can tell you that 40mph around the right curve is exhilarating as is a 115-120mph quarter mile. Yes, Its just a Corvette...but a car which handily competes with cars costing 2, 3, or 4 times its cost, including the P car. I thought about selling it since its sitting in my woodworking shop. But why? One of the best trips in my life was done this year in it. Very comfortable and fast enough to get by all the left lane hogs. Got to MD and played pool til 2am with my buddy. All that said, If I could only have my music or my Vette, The Vette will lose that race. BTW, yes the mid engine Vette is a game changer....some for the better, some worse (I think) They cannot continue with the 60k price.
New upper trim level Corvette or seven year old used amps?
Recently I have experienced quite a few people I know either passing on or being diagnosed with some type of cancer. And as I have never strived to be the richest guy in the graveyard, I was thinking of buying one of the new Corvettes. I also started to look at my older tube amps, good, but I had had them for about nine years, and the whole tube thing....then I started to think about some SS amps( I know, I’m going to hell). TAD M600, Dagostino M400, and then ventured into Dartzeel territory. Long story shorter: I came upon a pair of used Dartzeel 458’s, totally crazy price, totally crazy good. I have had them about a month and have enjoyed over 100 hours of listening nirvana. Had I bought the vette and drove it 100 hours, I’d have lost my drivers license, and spent thousands on tires, fuel, fines, etc.
myth buster: it’s all worth it! Expensive power and speaker cables, interconnects, speakers, and Dartzeel 458’s.
Anyone that tells you otherwise is using cost not quality as a determining factor.
Enjoy the music and Life
