Maybe you are listening to the equipment more than the music. I can not play an instrument either.
The best music I ever heard was in 1974 through a transistor radio while setting beside a lake with a pretty girl and a bottle of wine.
My Music Sounds Better Than I Ever Expected - How long will it last?
I listened to album after album this weekend. Both/All sides of every LP I placed on the turntable. I closed my eyes and had goosebumps - at least until I would hear a "POP" that would damage my cool for an instant. My listening levels are not conducive to conversational environments but I no longer wake the neighbors.
We chase the magic for decades. It was triggered when I was young and would regularly visit The Grove in Houston and listen to the B&W Matrix 801 3 or the flagship Dynaudio speakers of the time. I have not been to a high end salon in decades, so I do not know how much better it is today if at all.
How long will my happiness last? The analog chain of my system is very much aligned with that time and place. Much of the gear purchased in recent years now that I can afford the things that I heard back then.
System:
Aragon 4004 mkII
Aragon 28k preamp
Apogee Stage speakers
Rythmic Sub
Linn LP12 w/Ittok LVII
Linn Linto phono stage
Ortofon MC X40
Eversolo, Topping DAC, SMLC CD Transport, etc.....

Ohh you know, i am sure i couldn’t afford my daily bread and water without danny paying me 20 bucks a month. But, your speaker tends to look like this...it’s not a bad experiment... breathing some new life into some old class A doozy with decent bones at very little cost. Some spatial qualities, etc you never heard could show up...It’s a good candidate. https://www.stereophile.com/content/apogee-stage-mini-grand-loudspeakers-1994-measurements
