No validation for me--just proud of myself for saving and working hard to get the system I have now.
Validation
To go along with my post about how competitive you are regarding your set, is this question: Do you need someone to validate the quality of your set or can you be happy with it all by yourself? In my case, no one has heard my set in a long time and I’ve made many improvements. So far, I’m very pleased with what I’ve done, but I do wonder what others might think.
How about you?

I refer to the used Audio System as my System, but many of the devices within the assembly are Bespoke, Unique and not in use by any other. Then there are Devices that are used by others but in the guise that I own them with substantial design changes and modifications, these are Bespoke but used by a selection of owners having relied on the same service to attain the device. My Audio System is not really my own, it is the Brainchild of other's. I do own the credit for the bringing together the devices, the thought gone into how the system is propped up / supported, the thought gone into how the Space the End Sound is heard in, is formed to be a betterment for the sound produced, Source Material Recordings that are used to produce an End Sound, Cleanliness of a Source Material and the Critical Ancillaries used to interface with a Source Material. Disciplines developed I am happy to be the adopter of the methodologies. |
A longtime friend invited me over for Mojitos and to audition his upgraded system. I was quite impressed with the SQ and told him so. A couple of months later he mentioned that he was considering an upgrade. I told him his system was great as-is, and suggested that he spend the money on a vacation with his wife. That's what friends are for. |

The need for Validation -- the ultimate downfall of Gen Z, Gen Alpha's and later Millennials who have been raised on "Likes" and "Clicks". Take validation away from them and many of them have mental and social breakdowns -- that statement is not hyperbole, as study after study are proving this over and over.
I'm glad I'm old enough that the only person's opinion that matters to me is my wife of 40 years. And boy, does THAT opinion carry a lot of sway! |
