@ path2one, I hear you. @ sbank, thanks. @ slaw, just a thought, I would think not all music lovers are audiophiles, but aren't all audiophiles music lovers?
In my collection I've got some down right awful recordings, and many more that are just mediocre. But I love music and dig past all that to embrace the music. When I listen to well recorded music of course I'm in music heaven, but those who aren't pure music lovers are missing out on a LOT! Of course I grew up in the transistor radio era, too. Might have a little to do with it.
@ redridinghood, welcome fellow female audiophile (in the making). I also learned a lot about music systems on forums (and am still learning). You are in for quite a ride, but remember, in the end your own ears will let you know what sound is right for you. Enjoy the journey!
