This post is just to discuss our love of this hobby.
I feel blessed and cursed by this hobby. I have never had and probably never will have the money to buy some of the equipment I have seen and heard. I break many of the rules I have read. I combine equipment new and used. I make my own speaker wire. I have fought the sound gods and wrenched a greater sound from lesser equipment. My system has shocked some of my audiophile friends. With statements that it shouldn't sound this good. After thirty years of building and fighting I have finally achieved the sound I have been searching for.
I read about DBT's, neutrality and imageing and find myself wanting to argue my opinions to any one who will listen or even those who won't. When I put on an album or cd and that music comes to life. I hear the heart of the singer or the ring of a classical guitar. The overdrive of heavy metal grinds into my soul. I absolutely love this hobby.
