[QUOTE="ghostinthemachine, post: 1102318, member: 760"] The way I see it is that the pool of people who takes interest in listening to music on pedigree equipment is shrinking rapidly. The largest part of the population in this country cannot care less on what they listen they favorite tune on. As long as it makes noise. And most middle-income people suffer from peer pressure to keep up with the Joneses and their slimline soundbar from Marko. Never must any of us, the real enthusiasts, be under the impression that the majority of the people in this country can be converted to become eloquent, seasoned music-loving audiophiles. As long as there are zero cultivation of art, especially music, in the education system, the hobby that we love will continue to suffer and shrink. You see - money can buy a lot of things but it cannot buy "taste". It cannot buy sophisticated culture. It is the vulgar state of our modern society that we face here on the tip of Africa. [/QUOTE]
