I've changed my views on this

It's hit or miss + luck and experience.

We are rarely aware of our sound preferences until we hear something we like better than the sound we are used to. A "new sound revelation" experience can be a painful experience if we have recently maxed out or credit cards to buy equipment that produces our old favourite sound.

This is why going slow, doing a lot of auditioning and being patient about making purchase decisions pays off in the end. My experience is that if you do this, you will go through several "new sound revelation" experiences without buying a thing and you will make better decisions about the most cost-effective way to reach that sound.

Luck plays a big role. Being in the right place at the right time to hear something new that jolts you closer to musical nirvana.

Two rules i learned in the Navy:
1.) Indecision is the key to flexibility
2.) Never make a decision, now, you can put off until a future date.
