Upgrade my DAC or buy more weed?


So I was just listening to Bad Company (Live) "No Smoke Without a Fire" at near deafening levels (about 94db at my seat), the REL G1 was pumping away... it sounded like I was actually at the effing concert... and I am POSITIVE my neighbor was hearing what was going on as well... and I was wondering if I really should be thinking about upgrading to a better DAC or if those funds might be better invested on more weed? 

It seems like more and more lately, that when I am baked on a heavy Indica like Bubba Kush, Blackwater or AK-47, that I seem to "get" the music more and enjoy the listening session more.  Also, it seems that I become more open to different types of music as well.  Likely the same with musicians and song writers... they probably create some of their best work when they are high.

Just wondering I guess about dumping more money into system upgrades or just leave it as is and keep on smokin' ?

Man has used intoxicants since the dawn of time. I am not surprised to see a thread about weed and the music appreciation business. Makes perfect sense. As far as a better DAC goes, I don't know what you are currently using ...but yes, an improvement in the DAC will get you to a level where your next "session" will reveal another component or interconnect that is lacking ;-)  

My first DAC was a piece of junk, in retrospect. Then came a series of improvements that made my head spin with the differences. I've had similar experiences upgrading every component since then. 

I am curious as to the specific music-relevant effects you discern with different strains of weed. You mentioned Indica, can you give us some idea as to how that differs from the other major strain Sativa? Also, are there significant differences in specific varieties when it comes to music appreciation? I am not making fun, you asked a serious question.
