What an awesome listen, for those who care.


It is beautiful here in Central Florida, so everyone has their windows open, meaning no a/c power surges. Just wonderful for my system. I played some Billy Idol stuff, because in my better/earlier days, I would karaoke to him. I like him and his bandmates. Enjoyed the listen. But THEN, I played Nardia (most here should know, it has been a reference track, for years). I had it turned up to my favorite listening level, and I was floored, literally. My systems presentation took me to a time when I visited some small jazz clubs in NYC, and I was in heaven. So, as I constantly say here, it is only about the musicianship and the composition, well today, I felt proud to be an audiophile. SOUNDED GREAT!!!

@mrdecibel   hi...  I too live in central Florida on the west coast area and yes...  The weather has been terrific lately.  Are you a member of the SunCoast Audiophile Society ?  Even though I've been an audiophile for nearly 5 decades, I had never heard of Narnia by Hideyuki Hashimoto.  I will fire it up on QoBuz later this AM and listen.  Thanks for the recommendation !  

All this audio sillier stuff makes me grin. Not in a bad way, but a thought always goes through my head when l hear things like being proud to be an audiophile. 
 

If people claim to be in a special club being an audiophile, are they more receptive, do they process music more enthusiastically?

Or are they more blessed and hear music differently?
 

Everyone is different, I had my windows open on Long Island and I was blasting Dave Mason Live....RIP Dave.and I was in Heaven.

I sometimes wonder is confusion an objective or does it just happen naturally. When you talk about billy idol then immediately switch the conversation to another artist without indicating you’re doing so, and on top of it all you misspell the track name to throw everyone off. Also, how would most here know what your reference tracks are? What are you some sort of a celebrity here?
