What do you feel?


A friend who caught a bit of the audio bug from me asked me what I felt when I listened to music. I was taken back by the question because I didn’t know. I told him that I was relaxed when I listened to music. I didn’t think that was a good answer but I couldn’t think of any other. After a few days I came to the conclusion that I what I often feel is a sense of gratitude when I listened to music. I feel gratitude to be hearing the performance so well. It is if I was rich and had the best musicians in the past and present to perform at my pleasure.

What do you feel?

Foster_9, unfortunately it's necessary to go through that period of critical listening. I went through it for years. Not until I got tube pre and amp did it fall into place. I know we like a lot of the same music and that's why I mentioned this.

There are many paths to Nirvana, and I'm sure you will choose the best one.

Enjoy the music.
Everyone is a philosopher, and everyone has a philosophy. They may not know it, or be able to put it into words; but everyone has a philosophy. That was a bit of "Orphesian Philosophy"

I make CD's with titles like "Ann, or Gloria, or Cynthia". They are who I think about when I hear "our music". I feel all the colors of the rainbow.
