I lately wonder why I’m an Audiophile.

@slaw After a while it gets boring

l agree about getting to the beetroot of the problem….

It can be like eating salad day in, day out. Not everyone likes lettucepray or coleslaw, but then again, some do.

I like what I've presently play about with, the reproduction I coax out of it, the range of music and the 'other versions' of the arts of noise that please some but not all.

I enjoy taking innocent speakers and rudely modifying them into a version that I can't afford to do so otherwise.

How you feel about that, and how you might object....?
I'll avoid the argument, life is too short, and my hourglass is bottom heavy.

My spouse sent me this:

I'm a fan of 'creative re-use', But.....

- Mine look better; currently rough at the edges, but I'll go up against these NOW.

-I don't like the concept of 'diffracting' sound waves with cones and/or spheres.  It's hard enough to deliver a coherent sound field with current tech as it exists to everyone's agreement.  There's already enough bouncing off the floor, ceiling, and walls even with treatments.

-SAF is Nil.  She'll file, get everything, you end up with ear buds.

-Mine are lighter. Even the larger ones.

...but I'm just odd and in the way.... ;)

@asvjerry “…my hour glass bottom is very heavy”

l have the same problem.

My ass is getting very heavy, l listen to far too much music, with coffee and biscuits….

One thing is for sure and thinking about all this seriously, can this all indicate subconsciously that l’m very happy with my sound?

I am so glad to learn that i am not alone with an ass bigger than my chair...

@asvjerry “…my hour glass bottom is very heavy”

 

l have the same problem.

@mahgister “…glad to learn l am not alone with an ass bigger than my chair”

l think @asvjerry was referring to his longevity and being nearer to the grim reapers visit, but he may care to confirm one way or the other, if one or both are true.
