It’s possible to be an audiofile even if you play an instrument on conservatory level and understand some music. ☺️. But “the brick wall” is a nice touch in the dicussion. I believe it’s all a bit relative. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although there is the theory that what you do with it that counts... Funny that you should mention that... A few weeks ago we were having some friends over. When the first of them arrived and were being welcomed there was music playing (some piano sonata or other by Beethoven) and after a minute or so one of the guests - himself a classically-trained pianist - interrupted his own bit of chit-chatting to ask "Who is playing? They're very good!"... My system is OK but hardly top-end audiophile quality but that didn't matter to him; only the actual performance mattered. The very same situation exists, of course, in Photography. Philip. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe another thought: I listened to classical music a lot. Heard some concerts of the same piece a hundred times or more life. The thing was, that a lot of the time, it was impossible to reveal the seperation of instruments. Would it be better to hear a recording or the same music on record? Definitely, while using an appropriate turntable…🎙️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
