The two stages of audiophilia


1. Compulsively and fanatically build the best audio system you are able to and can afford.

2. Sit back, listen to MUSIC and enjoy your system.

@larryro2 ,

I did the same thing going from a Naim pre/power to a Creek Destiny integrated.

In no way did I regret the decision.

That finally put an end to my worrying about endless amplifier upgrades - a Naim six pack anyone?

The Creek is at least as powerful as my Naim combo was, and it has a remote.

"I need to go to AA (audiophiles annon) for the twelve step program!"

Maybe this forum is as good as?
@mahgister,

The next time I fall out with my wife perhaps I could try using the line, "It’s ok darling, things will be alright once you’ve been embedded."

Perhaps not.

Although come to think of it, things do usually resolve themselves that way.

But the problem is I’m not too sure just who’s doing the embedding or who’s getting embedded.

@limomangus,

Your happy until you read an article that tell you different...


If ever there was a hobby where the old adage about 'the grass always being greener on the other side' was true, it's this one.

Nevermind the fact that it might sometimes be true, look no further if you want to see where much of our discontent springs from.

It recently occured to me that whilst I'm busy on the lookout for new books to read, new music to listen to, new films to watch, there's a considerable library right here in my home waiting to be revisited...
