How isolated is your hi-fi?

Having a "purpose built" dedicated room,I can understand some sentiments on these threads.Yes,I definitely feel a bit isolated at times.There is something psychologically different about listening alone,having to walk to the end of my home,and being isolated.However,the ability to "really" max out all the NUMEROUS variables that matter,in a high resolution set-up,come to the fore much more easily.The room's ambient noise floor,alone,is something that is astonishing when addressed with low noise componentry.I love it,but don't feel I "need" it!I have a few super serious hobbyist friends,who have wonderful "shared" rooms.A dedicated one is NOT a must,but quite nice!
These are just some of my experiences,and I would definitely NOT state that one needs to have a dedicated room.I have been just as happy in past rooms,which shared other aspects of living space.
Best to all

One thing I forgot to mention about my seperate dedicated room is the ability to listen LOUD at any hour of the night.I live deep in the "burbs",and have no neighbor issues either.
The only problem,as of now,is I am getting a bit older,and those late night sessions don't come as often as they used to!
Another "listening killer",for me,has been the implementation of a new Sony LCD High Def TV,along with a maxxed out cable package.Not big time home theater,but enough to make me realize that High Def TV must be like what they claim doing crack cocaine is all about.Once you get a sampling you are INSTANTLY hooked!It does not offer me the same passion of audio/musical enjoyment,but BOY is it fun!!
Sad,but true!

Sorry,never mentioned that the tv is NOT in the dedicated audio room.Just the general living room.The music/audio room will always stay two channel!
As to the high def content...I like watching sports and nature shows.Occassional dramas are fun too.
Best.
