Hi Romy and thanks for your threads...

Since I joined, as a reader first, your Forum... well, I had plenty of good time reading your posts.

Your witty approach is really what we all needs in this Flat Earth... the problem in audio and music is that people in 95 percent of other Web forums do not use their own ears, wait for people hints on music to buy, concerts to go, gears to purchase... people do not want to get wrong, I'd say...

For me, trial and error, being wrong is part of a personal process which always bring to a "better", whatever it is... I bought several "wrong" discs, gears, bikes... as I had "wrong" women...

Reading a book about personal enhancement . the several  happiness manuals you find on bookshops shelves - instead of, simply and naturally, "living" it's not definitely, my cup of tea!

Your talking about the "kinds of audiophiles character" is absolutely applicable to ANY life fact... simply leave "......." (blank) on - i.e. politics, audio, health, food, travelling, bikes, cars, kids education, sex, etc.

Experiences make people richer... second hand experiences make people more and more lazy and fearsome and poorer.

Let's have no fears, pals... few days ago a friend (and fellow audio and music lover) who was looking at my work in progress, asked "Where do you read about this? Are you sure what're you doing?", while another friend, months ago told me: "The system is wonderfully sounding: I'd not touch nothing more, ever!"

In both cases, I replied sincerely, without any filter - i.e. of course I did my homeworks, re. informing myself on web and inspiring at several places, but  - mostly - I TOO MY TIME TO MOVE AND FIDDLE, AND FINELY TUNE AND LISTENE TO, AND MOVE AGAIN, without feeling unconfortable of "loosing the magic"... when something is working nicely, NOW that's the time to fiddle again, to go further this "NICE"...

I don't feel be braveheart... simply honest with myself: I'm my best friend!

Cheers,

Stefano
