c) deport the aliens, right?

I have written this statement before but it’s applicable here.

”We see what is in back of our eyes not what is in front of them” . The lesson is simple. We like what our mind has told us, not anything beyond that. Most people here will ask questions about a, b or c component and which one they should buy. Most of the time they are seeking justification for what their mind has already chosen. So this is a big factor but also the mind decides that a component that costs $30k must sound better than one that cost $15k. Illogical and again, what our mind tells us. Furthermore, the component that costs more must sound better and consequently will give us more listening pleasure. Another illogical fallacy.

My luck was having no budget for audio..

I experimented with acoustics , it was fun and now i understand why and how  gear matter not because it is only a budget thing ...

I know how to make a system working optimally at any price able to reach if not the maximal, at least the minimal acoustical satisfaction threshold...

Anything than basic knowledge is useless it is bragging or marketing...

I love too much music  to think that this hobby is about "upgrades"...

It is about music listening and acoustics knowledge ...
