Upgrade my DAC or buy more weed?


So I was just listening to Bad Company (Live) "No Smoke Without a Fire" at near deafening levels (about 94db at my seat), the REL G1 was pumping away... it sounded like I was actually at the effing concert... and I am POSITIVE my neighbor was hearing what was going on as well... and I was wondering if I really should be thinking about upgrading to a better DAC or if those funds might be better invested on more weed? 

It seems like more and more lately, that when I am baked on a heavy Indica like Bubba Kush, Blackwater or AK-47, that I seem to "get" the music more and enjoy the listening session more.  Also, it seems that I become more open to different types of music as well.  Likely the same with musicians and song writers... they probably create some of their best work when they are high.

Just wondering I guess about dumping more money into system upgrades or just leave it as is and keep on smokin' ?

Rumor Control - there is no nicotine in cannabis.  I'm 62 and retired with a medical cannabis card.  In that light it is a wonderful drug.  It cures many symptoms of old age including but not limited to insomnia, libido and, of course, it definitely kicks the stereo up an entire magnitude (X10).  Paranoia can be a factor.  Keep the dose low and the nervousness subsides in about ten minutes.  Then enjoy!  Warning: cannabis is a drug that can become a mental addiction and complicate your life.  It's not for everyone.  Overuse or illegal use is not recommended.  

Think of the different types of weed like alcohol. They each have their signature buzz. Beer, wine liquor and all the variants in each category are similar in effect but have a different mood associated with them. The effect on music is universal - more focus, separation and "there" there - like the room suddenly has perfect acoustics and the gear is flawless.  Aside from that, your appreciation is dependent on your mood.  Experience necessary to choose the right one for you.
