It’s such a great hobby and so full of personal passion that many hobbyist become tied to their system as if it were alive (like a close friend). I have always been that way and enjoy each encounter like a kid at Christmas, I think most do. I also believe if we can open our minds up to the concept of our "whole" system instead of getting stuck on one part only, we allow ourselves to make a connection to a greater fellowship.

PS: I should probably add this from the point of view from someone who deals with listeners daily, tuning their systems. Most of the time that you see someone getting upset on forums it comes down to one reason "they haven’t done it yet". Assuming something in audio or only living off of theory hardly ever leads to a total successful listening experience. Each step we take only leads us to the next step and that means a lot of times needing to turn back around and head in the opposite direction to find where we lost what we thought we found. It’s hard to back up when money is involved, but truth isn’t found in the money or the components. Truth is found in the music itself.
