I change gear too often. It would not be practical for me, I would rather listen to music or surf the ads. And I have only been here for 25 years, so there is plenty more time.
I’m not sure that it really speaks to experience anyway, I have worked for nine different audio retailers and moderated a couple of audio forums. To me, that speaks to experience more than what I own at the moment does. But really, it doesn’t tell you what real gear sounds like in a real room any more than a picture, or video, does.
If you have a person that has a fantastic system, but does not have experience with other gear and doesn’t go to shows, dealers, or is not a member of a club, well that base of experience is somewhat limited. But just like me, this is an open forum and I don’t care about other member’s sadness and what bona fides legitimize anyone’s opinions, I would rather just hear what they have to say, YMMV.
