@chayro thank you for sharing this, and initiating the conversation!
I enjoyed the video, and liked where he spoke from. Too often I see the seagulls fly in to these threads, and crap all over someone. Innumerable dogmatic stances: use this cable, tube instead of solid state, triode vs ultralinear, that brand of tube, this isolation component, upgrade your cartridge, fuses in the wrong direction, that DAC chip. In the grand scheme of things, does it really result in the difference between finding pleasure and release in your music or failure to do so? I and so many others get lost in my clock radio and car stereo, so I know perfection is not a requirement. As he mentions, this hobby should focus on enjoyment. Isn't that why most of us got into this hobby?
