Dave,"I have many ideas, but if I never take the time and effort to build the sculptures or paint the paintings, I have not created or contributed anything of worth to myself and/or others."
I feel the same way. Whatever I came up with so far turned out to be already used somewhere, tried out by someone. However, most of the findings are either not understood, or came at the wrong place / time - or already have failed the tests, and went down the drain.
When you open up a tube manuals, there are well over 10.000 types of vacuum tubes manufactured. Of these, only a tiny fraction is used for audio. There is so much yet undiscovered and untouched! There are issues, that are still unresolved, like volume control, or the right way to build a digital source. Plenty of excitement ahead of us...... :)
I tend to oscillate between music listening periods, and DIY-er periods. Sometimes I get so absorbed in music, that I stop DIY for months. Sometimes I get so nuts about DIY, that I forget enjoying music. The balance is hard to find, but is the secret of DIY-zen. :)
