General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

To enjoy something, completely, it means "letting go" of the

reasoning side and allowing oneself to relax into the feeling one.
To be extra-attentive to how a component sounds is to dilute the appreciation. Similarly, to concentrate on the performance (every time you hear it, comparing and contrasting to others), is to lessen its impact. To do both, I'd emphasize, is truly to lose much.
Of course, the listener must evaluate an artist/recording, but I'm speaking to those who look upon music as some sort of test venue for their equipment (at least that's the impression from their comments); or their equipment as some sort of performance measuring apparatus.
Simply put, to obsess over the performance and equipment is similar to the scientist who spends the day identifying and categorizing flora, quite unaware of the natural beauty surrounding her.
