System selection a personal perspective

[PeterSt]

Oh, I can make you feel even more comfortable by saying and stating (!) that what you don't know (for the better SQ) also does not disturb. So in the end we all want to proceed and work on that on an hourly basis, but that is why it is a hobby.
Still the difference is this :

When you are not there yet, you will notice that yourself by the sheer fact of being with curled toes in your shoes because you know the music is too loud and soon someone will say something about it.
Of course you don't turn it down yourself.

When you are there (or at least are much further), you will not have the idea of turning down the volume; worse, your wife will ask you to turn it up instead.
At the same time you will be in extasy day in day out (this is lteral, think of being drugged).
What, sadly, comes along with it, is the down-days. The days that you can't find anything to play because actually something is wrong. Of course you don't know what it is, and you become obsessed by it. Extasy now has turned into angry moods.
Life was more easy earlier on ...
