My range (50 to 59) was leading before, now falling back a bit. I tell you, this is so much more exciting than the "European Song Contest" that we had here in Europe last weekend. I'm thrilled!

So...
Are we using this in lieu of a Hearing Test?? An Eyesight Test?? Or an Anticipated Finances Test??

I think most millennials go with the mainstream (iPhone, iPod) or if really interested in better sound, the Sonos way.


Going in other directions than what everyone else do, is not so common.

Many of the elder hifi enthusiasts I have met around my father were absolutely not interested in explaining the stuff. They acted like a secret society, always in competition with the fellows and no time for the teens. I do my best to do different with my daughter. But that has limitations. For sure the wrongest way is to say: what you do is all rubbish. Try to show them the difference. Also, do not try the mission with YOUR music, that is in my eyes the biggest mistake.

Sad. I have my passion for high fidelity audio thanks to my dad, who shared the hobby with me (he turned 70 this year).

My own sons are only 8 and 6, so they're not at the age where this stuff makes any sense to them. They just want to hear what they like, regardless of the sound quality.

My dad let me even touch and try most of his gear, only his TD160 was tabu. So all was fine for me. Biggest problem was really the music. His was never mine.
I am quite sure you will today not find many 15 year old you can catch with Sabbath or Zep. Did not work with me too.

Fair. He and I have some overlap in taste, but certainly not full. We both enjoy jazz, and we both enjoy the Beatles, Billy Joel, and a bunch of Cantopop.
