Upgrade my DAC or buy more weed?


So I was just listening to Bad Company (Live) "No Smoke Without a Fire" at near deafening levels (about 94db at my seat), the REL G1 was pumping away... it sounded like I was actually at the effing concert... and I am POSITIVE my neighbor was hearing what was going on as well... and I was wondering if I really should be thinking about upgrading to a better DAC or if those funds might be better invested on more weed? 

It seems like more and more lately, that when I am baked on a heavy Indica like Bubba Kush, Blackwater or AK-47, that I seem to "get" the music more and enjoy the listening session more.  Also, it seems that I become more open to different types of music as well.  Likely the same with musicians and song writers... they probably create some of their best work when they are high.

Just wondering I guess about dumping more money into system upgrades or just leave it as is and keep on smokin' ?

You need to figure out how you can get a new dac and keep smoking, that seems to be the better question and by almeans do not Bogart that joint my friend.

I believe that DAC is a known 'gateway' device. Your desire to upgrade it is typical of a user's path to harder, more devastatingly costly equipment. 

Titration might help stem the progression. Please, for the sake of your loved ones, stay away from jazz music. 
There is always "different" but "better" is harder to come by. :)

What is it you are missing? Is your imaging, sound stage what you want? Do you care about air and space around notes of more intimate music?

It’s a great thing to be happy with what you have. Don’t underestimate it.

Now, about more weed.  Modern weed is stronger, with more THC, but also has more tar and nicotine in it. Just because it's missing all the crap they put into commercial cigarettes doesn't mean it's safe to smoke. Any time you burn things and inhale you are risking your lungs. I'm also not calling it the demon weed, just suggesting caution. A new dac would not cause lung cancer, or leave you in danger of driving or operating heavy machinery for days afterwards.  Now that I think about it, yes, you are safer buying a new DAC. :)

Best,

Well....I hope you sent some along with the speakers I just bought from you! 
Your DAC is great. Headphones maybe?


Indeed... remove the woofer from each speaker and you will find an ounce of premium "Golden Ticket".... unless the FedEx guys found it.
