I think it is possible that some people could be looking in one place for one set of rules and an expected outcome, and then without even realizing it really find what they were looking for elsewhere, completely by accident or fate, and never really know what that was even as they are somehow set at ease. Maybe a part of that was in the structures of music or the mechanisms of components and systems, until the whole of it was stumbled across elsewhere. Ultimately I do not worry about it. I will change and walk away. And I will probably relationalize it to death. The one sure thing in my relationship with music is that I do not feel any need to justify my likes or dislikes. I can be moved by the silliest shit, and left cold by pure genius. I really like that.
Do we suffer our music?
Here's some food for thought.
Is it the nature of this hobby to never be satisfied with the quality of music reproduction we can attain?
It seems to me, that the vast majority of us are satisfied only for short periods of time, and are constantly searching for audio nirvana.
So heres my question. What is the longest time you have been totally satisfied with your system? and what caused you to change it ( again?)
And is the point of this hobby to enjoy the music or suffer because of what we think we are missing?
