Most of my free time, I guess. Maybe 30 hrs per week., posted on August 10, 2012 at 17:30:18

Not into TV very much, or playing sport (except for winter sports); so I'm usually on the audio forums and listening to music when I am not at work. Say 3-4 hrs per day, maybe twice that on the weekend.

I usually read a couple of books on the weekend, but I'm also playing music at that time.


Regards,
Geoff

Hard to say ,it varies from day to day. My music is left on a good portion of the day with critical listening here and there .The computer fills in the empty spaces :^)

Usually all day, then a few hours on TV late at night, or watch a movie.
Then sleep.
Half of all outside excursions are to buy used music.

I retired last July and if I'm lucky I get an hour in the afternoon to sit down with a nice glass of red wine and enjoy my system. Then I usually get an hour or two in the evening, but with the Olympics on, that time has been cut back to almost nothing.

Personally I'd slice into the sleep schedule to make more time.

What motivated you to post? You had to have at least a remote interest in the topic, right?

At least 8 to 10 hours a weekday, somewhat less on weekends, that spent designing, measuring and listening to loudspeakers and drivers mostly.

last thing you want to do is possibly force himself to think.

Or at least try to.

how much time they spend responding to your posts. Regardless whether or not they think your posts have any relevance, people do line up to take their time to respond. That in and of itself is saying something. ;) While I am replying I am listening to Billie's Body and Soul on MoFi gold CD. Good stuff. Keep on posting Sudzie, you provide content and entertainment, regardless of what the nay sayers say.

I spend the same amount of time on audio as you do looking at internet porn and doing the Five Knuckle Shuffle,

take AA in any direction. Unless, I'm mistaken no one is forced to respond to Sudz. Seems to me that we are all individually responsible for the posts we read and our decision to respond...or not.

I think there is something magnetic about any post with Sudz name attached. Perhaps more than the actual subject he introduces, his posts provide the impetus to throw verbal barbs and sarcastic
comments his way. Reminds me of the clown who sits in the dunking tanks at fairs and shouts out silly remarks at attendees daring them to try and dunk him. Sells tickets doesn't it?
