I have to come clean. I'm an incurable audio equipment junkie. Nothing gives me a bigger thrill than hearing new equipment. Guess that's why first and foremost, I'm an equipment reviewer. Nor am I ashamed admitting that.
I get a rush hearing what different components, say cartridges or speakers, reveal about my favorite recordings and allow me to appreciate about the music. That instrument playing softly that wasn't there before. Those little intonation in the singer's voice. That added reverb and echo to the recording.
On the other hand, I find my system at the point where I can just lose myself listening to the music and totally forgetting about the equipment. The equipment is such that the speakers disappear and all that's left are musicians playing music too.
