Is it time to just quit?

I'm in the post holiday blues right now and have lost sone interest in music but it will come back like it akways does

It is good to have some silence too! I will stop listening to anything for a day now and then.When I drive my car I have no radio or music on! I like to hear the engine, the tires on the pavement..       
Also I can listen to my parakeets.. they sing too.           
Good luck.

Sometimes I come into my music room and not play anything. Just to enjoy the silence. I think our brain needs a rest sometimes too.

Absolutely! Hope your  holiday season was a restful one. A time to reflect and re-boot, reset.  Happy Listening!

Thank you  Elizabeth for this post. You really hit on a subject I have not let myself really consider. The obsessiveness of my hobby. I have big $'s invested (no it's money spent on a depreciating asset). I am 63 and a victim of very loud concerts in the 70's. I remember not being able to hear for hours after the concerts. Anyway, even with damaged hearing I still lust after new gear. The basis of my system is new McIntosh driving  Revel Salon 2's. In reality this should be the last "big $" stuff for me. I read this post and heard the last conversation I had with my wife. I was telling her about the amazing sound of tube equipment and that would my last purchase. She snapped back (lovingly) with, you can't even hear the microwave or coffee maker "ding" at the end of the cycle. And 
 you have worn out the "last purchase" line. My immediate thought was, she just doesn't understand. After reading this post, I think it may be me that doesn't understand. Perhaps addiction is too strong of a word, but spending mega bucks and looking for more stuff? I had an aunt who was pretty much "home bound" and watched the shopping channel all of the time. Over the years, she had purchased about 150 handbags. We used to laugh about it all of the time. Hmm...
