The Forest for the Trees


I caught myself last night doing something that I need to do more. I was listening to the music. I wasn’t concerned with imaging, sound stage, tonal quality, wasn’t even thinking about it. I was listening to the music. It engaged me, I was lost in it. But then, I caught myself and started thinking about why it engaged me. It sounded awesome because all of the qualities listed above were there. I need to remind myself to enjoy this hobby more for the music than the pursuit of perfection. It feels good when it happens and you don’t even know it is happening.

Millercarbon, I read a post on here today from yesterday I believe, that had you describing your experience listening to Run Like Hell. It’s those experiences that make this hobby worth it.
Enjoying On Every Street by Dire Straits tonight. Toes are tapping and I’m really looking forward to My Parties and Planet New Orleans!

Even though I’ve been happy for a few months now, I just saw a pair of Revel Performa F208s that are making me twitchy. It’s still a hobby...lol. I think it may be the audio nervosa that geoffkait mentioned above...and it ain’t asymptomatic.

asctim...that’s what I do. I’ll get bored and start trying some of the suggestions I read on here. Sometimes I find something that really helped.
