@ericgale sometimes. You have to just listen and enjoy. My main system is done. I’m just searching for more music at this point.
Qualities Of An End-game System
Qualities of an end game system:
- Speakers disappear
- The room disappears
- The listener disappears, his mind is shut down/gone.
- There is nothing left but the perception of falling into an abyss filled with music.
- The listener doesn't know where any of the music came from, but, it is all inside of him. Sex, drugs, etc can't come even remotely close to such an experience of pure audio nirvana.
If your system can't do that (whatever it may be), you have no end game.

@ghdprentice you speak truth my friend. I’m tired of chasing and I’m happy. I understand just like the saying in the old mob movies. EVERYTIME I TRY TO GET OUT THEY KEEP PULLING ME BACK IN! |
That sort of brougt to mind something Steve Earle was quoted as saying, something to the effect of, "Cocaine is like golf, it's white, you hit it, and then you chase it all day." However, better sound isn't white and you can chase it for way more than a day. It can cost a lot of money though. |
On another thread I spoke about Welcome To the Pleasuredome, which is 40 years young this year. Listening to this, cranked, hearing Mark O'Toole's bass line in all of it's glory, and the rest of the band's instrumentals, vocals, and sounds, has me enjoying a system that " never stops ". When I hear the musicians do their thing, and I am " involved " with the listening experience, well, that's all folks. Enjoy ! MrD. |
