the process is more challenging than the result


it is my hypothesis that the process of "perfecting" or attempting to attain a specific "sond" from one's stereo system is more challenging and enjoyable than listening to the stereo system after a particular "result" has been acieved.

while it is enjoyable to listen to music on a stereo system, the steps taken to satisfy your sonic goals are more interesting, self-actualizing and "fun", than passively listening to music.

as has been said, one can get most of the benefits of listening to music on a table radio, that one gets from listening to music played through a well set-up stereo system.

there is no substitute for experimenting, tinkering,trial and error ,experiencing new "sounds", and hopefully,achieving the type of sound one truly desires.

such a quest, could be the reason so many used components are available for sale.

many are in this hobby because they are chasing their dream of sonic utopia, rather than strictly to listen to music.

Changelings are prone,its true, to try something different every chance we get on all levels especially the pleasurable ones.Even the androids now among us,are being influenced by our insatiable moods.And they have no feelings or physical sensations that I'm aware of which would account for their despicable behaviour.Like comparing a Mcintosh to a Levinson!Whats to come can only be best described as what Hunter Thompson would say if he could.Even he needed a vacation from this type of cyber-ranting and celebration,cheers,Bob
