How do you find time to enjoy your $$$ speakers and system?


Maybe this topic is more of recommendation and sharing ideas than a question. We invested in our hifi systems for years to get to a place where we appreciate what our systems sound. Now, how do you find time to enjoy listening to music if many of us work long hours and still need to take care of family, errands etc…I don’t remember when was the last time I spent more than 2 hours a week at the most to enjoy the system I spent $$$ to build. How do you find time to enjoy your system?

As you say, time seems to be in short supply for some of us these days. I sometimes joke to my wife that I think I'd be better inside a prison left alone with my HiFi and a collection of books.

 

I try to tend to snatch an hour here and there with my main system whenever I can, but I've always got my headphones outdoors and then there's the Bluetooth system downstairs, the media player in the car.

None of them sound anything like my main system though.

Lord knows why, but Nat King Cole sounds epic through it tonight.

 

 

 

"2 hours a week at the most"? Guess you’re not really a music lover.

We have evidence of that in your going on to say ".....to enjoy the system I spent $$$ to build. How do you find time to enjoy your system?" So you spent $$$ to have a system to enjoy, not the music it is made to reproduce?

Music lovers don’t "find" the time to listen to it, they "make" the time. Guess you have higher priorities, ay?

I manage to have plenty of time to listen to tunes, watch movies and television series, and read a lot of books. Good for several hours a day of each.....

I still have to get to a point where she would not say: 

"there is no freaking difference between this and the previous speakers"
