The argument against upgrading

@mahler123 

I actually did not understand the point of your OP.  Why would you stop “getting into” certain songs if you upgrade?

The point I was trying to get over is that the experience being absorbed in music doesn't necessarily depend on sound quality. Another way of putting it would be suspending disbelief. Once I'm pulled into it, I may not care about quality because I'm just enjoying the music. 

Very likely improved sound quality will make it easier to get there or make a wider range of music accessible. But still not necessarily enhance the experience of listening.

Of course, this may be different for difference listeners.

It is a good thing if few voices speak about the same necessity and imperatives if they are important...

My best to you ....

👍👍👍

l think l just said the same thing on the thread…. “Why do expensive amplifiers produce a better soundstage?”

I may not agree with the statement above on my comments…. But more like…
 

It’s not what you got, but how you use it.

Music perception and meaningful experience has nothing to do with sound...

I had all my life horrible sound system even with good speakers like the Tannoy dual gold a marvel i did not optimize because i did not knew how to do it  by sheer ignorance...

Since i learned with the available time and available room after retirement ...

Now i listen music....
