What drugs do you use to enhance your listening experience?


In this post let's consider alcohol, nicotine, and coffee drugs, as they are, along with the usual suspects that can get you arrested in most US states and beheaded in Saudi Arabia. I live in Victoria, Canada, which has more marijuana shops than Starbucks, and we have tons of Starbucks. In 10 minutes, I can walk from my house to four dispensaries, which will sell to anyone over 18. OK, enough bragging, For me, a puff, and just one puff (I don't like getting stoned) can be the best tweak ever. A glass of wine is also a fine compliment. Too much alcohol will increase my enjoyment (because I'm drunk) but put Phil Spector in the room (wall of sound and loss of the stuff I value in my system, such as clarity).

Hi, my name is Tostados and I'm a recovering audioholic...

Wolf, I have a hard time believing that I'm the only person who felt that daily smoking was bad for my lungs.  After a really bad bout of bronchitis I tried to go back to regular use and it was a mistake.  I'm glad I got out when I did and I'll be surprised if, when data is available, we don't find that a lot of people are wrecking their lungs with pot.  The new vaporizers should help a lot in that regard.  Time will tell.
asvjerry, there's a lot of unfavorable possibilities besides lung cancer.  Read all about it:   https://www.thoracic.org/patients/patient-resources/resources/marijuana.pdf
Of course there's vaporizers and there's ingestion by way of prepared food, so...where there's a weed there's a way, I suppose.
