New Audiophile?


Last night, my 15 year-old daughter was "surprised" to discover that Tate Mcrae sounds better on my stereo than her iPhone.

We'll see what becomes of this.

My 38 year old daughter and I recently bonded over Chris Isaak from around 30 years ago.

I spent a lot of time sound-shaming my kids any time I caught them listening to music on their iPhones. I gave them each a nice setup and ask them every week if they bought a new album, do they have any recommendations, anything worth strreaming?

They seem annoyed and amused with my obsession, but at the end I hope they enjoy it and forget the damn phone.

How exciting!

I would have loved to share this hobby with a family member or two.

All the best.

What a great thread.  I just gave my 11 year old grandson his first stereo for Christmas and he was thrilled.  Beginners turntable etc.  His uncle gave him new and used records, mostly hard rock classics.  Then he had to check out my rig and I gave him lessons about cleaning [and keeping clean] records. Great, well spent holiday.
