My 10 y.o. cleaning his room and singing and dancing to The Chain on his new M and K speakers. As he listens to the GOTG soundtrack he tells me classic rock really hits me in my soul. Thanks AK
Listening to a favorite album and hearing the music, picturing the instruments and NOT thinking one bit about the gear making the sound.
It's at that point you can let go of the upgraditis, but probably won't.
My two and a half year old daughter sometimes pulls a record and asks me to play it. These picks are mostly random or based on the pretty cover. Sometimes she likes it, sometimes she doesn't. BUT, recently she has begun picking a few specifically because she knows she likes it. The latest was The Marshall Tucker Band (debut). She likes side 2 best. I'll take it.
