Ever sit down to listen and just say wow?


Ever go through a period of extended tweaking of multiple components of your system and get so focused for days, weeks or months on trying to improve different elements of the SOUND that you stop actually hearing the MUSIC.  Then you sit down one day to actually listen for pure enjoyment and say holy crap, whose system is this? I want to listen to ALL MY MUSIC RIGHT NOW.  I am sure this phenomena happens all the time to Agoners, but it's a wonderful thing.

Fortunately for me, fairly often.  And that's without making many changes/improvements/tweaks to my system over time.  However, I do have a couple of power cords on loan that I'm going to live with for a bit.
I think that most of us who are fortunate enough to have a highly resolving and musical system are astounded every time we listen to our systems. It gets to the point where reproducing music, digital or analog, at this level in the home is like magic. In fact there have been times when I have referred to my system as "the magic music machine."

The last time I was enthralled about a music system was with Infinity IRS, Audio Research, Decca cartridge/Linn Sondek  (it was the last time I had sex also - don't know if there was a connection)
.......ummmmm the above response is a little strange even for this site. I digress
