Anyone in this hobby lonely like me and wish they could “hang” with a fellow audiophile?
I had to ask this question. Because that’s where I’m at currently. I created a nice little smartly tuned system that I’d love to play for others. As well as a knowledge base that’s strong enough now to listen in educated fashion to others’ systems as well. I just wish I could invite someone to listen, or vise versa. But all my audiophile friends are states or continents away. I live in a small town in east coast Florida and just don’t know anyone in my region who’s an audiophile other than dealers.
Any thoughts?
Will post system in next post
Thanks!

@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. |
“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. |
newton_johnOops! It appears I am the one who missed the point. LOL I've not only heard the quote but just experienced in action! Anyway, as per your request, my rig: Kuzma Stabi XL DC TT w/ a Kuzma 14" 4 Point arm and a Koetsu Rosewood Signature Platinum cartridge A custom made phono stage from Luna Cables in Canada, which replaced my Naim Superline/Supercap. (Huge improvement) Naim Statement mono block amps and the Naim Statement preamp. Naim CD555 w/ 2555PS DR'd Revox R2R (PR99 Mk 2) custom refurbished A full loom of Luna Noir cables (interconnects, XLRs and speaker and power cords) Grandinote Mach 36 speakers, custom built for me. They are the only pair in the world.
