No change at all. My taste in music is still terrible, exceeded only by my
horrible taste in audio gear.
horrible taste in audio gear.
Have your standards/taste in music changed?
I have been involved in high-end audio for 40+ years now and I would have to say that my selection and appreciation for music has in many ways been influenced by this audiophile hobby. I know that there is a lot of music that I would not otherwise have know to exist had I not spent time with Stereophile/Absolute Sound and other magazines and journals. I have attended a number of major Audiophile Shows and demos always finding the selection of music interesting and motivating. Live music has had a special interest due to it being the standard by which recorded music has been judged; but not without an ever present interest in how well my system(s)could reproduce an excellent facsimile. I would be interested in your thoughts on this subject and if you feel that this hobby has truly made a difference in your world of music.

I listen to far more classical recordings than when I was younger. With blues and folk/country/bluegrass I prefer the older stuff, especially in the case of blues (20's-50's era). Rock listening hasn't changed much--I still prefer the music I grew up with and don't have too much stuff past 1980. Nirvana was the last band I bought, I reckon. |
I am afraid, my personality changed .... |
