| $50k - $80k Budget…Opinions please. I agree, how someone spend their money is none of our business. Investment is a never-ending cycle. If someone ask for 80k recommendation, should just give them that or not at all. I don't know anything about amps above 20k. But those dan'gostin... | |
| How rare is an audiophile I was already an audiophile at the age of 7 but I never knew that or even the meaning of the word until much later in life. Listening to music at such a young age felt like a source of life force to me. A very fun life source In 5th grade when a ... | |
| I am just very happy with my system. @tomcarr ty I'm much better now. | |
| Which Hegel Amp with LRS+ Definitely Hegel 390. Lots of praises and many user experience with LRS/+ and Hegel 390. | |
| How rare is an audiophile You know which question would make this thread become even more interesting? What's the chance of someone being an audiophile vs the chance of someone being a killer 🤣 Too dark? | |
| I am just very happy with my system. @roxy54 Very happy with my system indeed, but why upgrade? No, no upgrade. But some of the speakers in the 20-30k are so wildly gorgeous, as a lover of speakers I just gotta have it before I die. You know.... the curse. Or the blessing 😀 @tomc... | |
| How rare is an audiophile Very low. 95% male. That must mean 5% female. Coincidentally I think only 5% of male are audiophile, so 2.5% of the population. Thing is 99% of the people listen to music, but to have a passion like us, yea 2.5% | |
| Why do almost all women today hate home audio? It has to do with the long hair covering the ears. It's not good for appreciating good sound. | |
| Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component? Not for a single second that I'd buy your bs. The last part about Elon Musk's money. If you had Elon Musk money, you'd buy the bestest and most expensive piece of gear without a second thought. So yes, you are "crazy for saying that". And the ... | |
| Don't sell your tube amps I love the sound of tubes, I do. I adore it. But tubes gotta go for some very important reasons. Who knows how long the NOS supply is going to last and who can afford it. | |
| New KEF R11 META : The Real Giant Killers ! More like $6,955. Which is more like $7,000. If it goes on sale I'll consider. | |
| Why do almost all women today hate home audio? @sgreg1 Upon reading what you wrote, a light bulb lit up in my head. Also quite directly related to the core question of this thread. My hypothesis, we who are passionate about this audio hobby like the incremental progress. 5% improvements, a... | |
| Why do almost all women today hate home audio? If we just stop the labels and the politically-correct behavior that is the trend these days. You will simply see a few undeniable facts. 1) Almost everyone listens to music 2) There seems to be close to a 1:1 of men and women involved in the mu... | |
