[QUOTE="legro, post: 859625, member: 584"] If this thread demonstrates one thing, it's that even audiophiles don't " listen ". ( This echoes Trompie's post earlier). Listening requires concentration, not background or " music playing while I braai, DIY, shag, or work out " variety. The iPod, more than anything, made us used to " listening to music while we do other stuff ". Cool if it works for you, but you miss so much. So, I have music around me all the time, mostly trash. However, if I actually want to " listen " to music ( and HEAR it ) I have a dedicated system that, sadly, does not get used enough. One minute with that though,( and I'm not exaggerating ) trumps any number of hours with whatever Spotify, iTunes, or my horoscope confidently predicts that I should like to listen to on the day.
