Is it time to see a shrink?

Recently,I bought a used Krell CDP KAV 280 in SILVER. It is in excellent condition except for two little marks on the side. IT sounds wonderful to my ears BUT I am irriated most of the time looking at its silver color from certain angles and most of all it does not look good with the BLACK Krell(s) I owned. I know I hate those "grey" old Krell look and silver could be beautiful but I still have problem to love the SILVER so I decide to sell it to buy a SACD Standard in BLACK even though I don't listen to SACD often. Does any one have the same issue ?

place a blindfold over your eyes when you listen to music.

hi andrewdoan:

perhaps you asked a rhetorical question.

i will assume you are asking a question for me to answer.

if i am wrong please forgive me.

its all an illusion. the mind fills in what is missing from your stereo system. that's why listening to a table radio is just as statisfying, as far as appreciation of music is concerned. obviously, a table radio may not compete with a stereo system with respect to the usual audiophile criteria.

the person is more important than the stereo system as far as receiving the benefits of listening to music.
