Anyone in this hobby lonely like me and wish they could “hang” with a fellow audiophile?

@oldrooney Re "Old Me Better"--saw Keb' Mo' at Humphrey's in San Diego about a month ago--of course the crowd demanded he sing it and of course he did, but he prefaced it by saying "This is a song i liked when i wrote it but I now hate it more than any other song i've ever written"--didn't elaborate but we were all thrilled he sang it 😀 

On topic, this forum is a great way to share the "loneliness" of being an audiophile--i wish my wife would enjoy sitting in the music room and listening with me but maybe she wishes i would sit in her quilting room and watch her--best left unasked.

We would like to see your system. There is a place under your USerID to put photos and ID your components. It is really helpful to see where you are coming from. Great way of introducing yourself.

@wyoboy So Ken Mo can stir strong feelings of opposition— in himself?

Would he be better off as a lonely audiophile? I hope not. I consider him a creative musical talent and I’m glad he shares that talent with us. 
Personally, I need to see if there is a group that meets within 100 miles from me, between Raleigh and the coast on North Carolina.

“Brag about your world class system all you want.   ???“

I am completely supportive of everything you said. Those were your words, not mine. My point was you aroused my curiosity and I wanted to hear more about your system, just like @ghdprentice says above. Feel free to tell more.

I am from the UK. Have you heard the quote about being “divided by a common language”?

@oldrooney He didn't elaborate on why he didn't like it any more but i'm guessing part of it is that he's sick of singing it? [And so is his wife?]

But that brings to mind that every audiophile journey (IMO) begins with the love of music and it's only the gear part that makes an audiophile lonely--i can always share music with friends on my system even if they have no clue about the gear--they sure seem to enjoy hearing the music on it.
