In Reply to: Does audio make you a better person? posted by barryb on July 19, 2012 at 06:34:34:
After spending many years in audio and a few with video from both mid-fi to hi-fi I learned to be inclusive and tolerant of other peoples level of investment both financially and emotionally. Learning this helped better me. Believe me I worked a few sales floors where both greed and arrogance was shown by some of the staff. I also had other co-workers that lead me in the other direction, thank goodness.
I've also shopped at stores where some attitudes were pretty awful. All part of the learning experience. When I show my system to other friends and such I'm careful to point out that it's what I like and not everyone else will. As well, not everyone is willing to invest as much as me and that's OK. I've talked several times on the logarithmic return in dollars spent on about anything "high-end" (cars, hotels, wine etc.) One of my best compliments was when Joe Lee of Joe's Record Paradise heard "Miles in the Sky" on my system and said "I've heard this thousands of times and it sounded better than he ever heard it before." Saying he heard stuff within the recording that he had not previously.
