What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.IX)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2013
With 2013 upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.
Anyway, links:

Doug,
How much time (in years) do you need if you decide to listen to every recording you own?
Haim,
Since I can't take it with me, my future listening time is booked solid right up until the end 
If I wanted a marathon, 500 days straight (720,000 minutes) listening around the clock without a break would do it.
Just think, when dementia sets in, I'll have forgotten about everything except for the music.

Well, as you know, I have so much more time on my hands (and a meager music collection) so I bought tickets today for Mr. Hamelin's concert in May. You are invited.

While it's true for vinyl that you can't take it with you, I believe digital is now uploadable provided you have it in cloud storage.
..now again a spin during my workout, I start to like it more and more..
Staier's Goldbergs are fantastic, even through itunes. Having listened to the program for two straight weeks, I have become a bit more appreciative of what it can do, and the mini looks the part, but I still think sound is pants (everything sounds same-y, like the menu at McDonalds). Tried Audirvana, Bitperfect, it changes the sound but doesn't make it any less artificial. VLC sounds best, but a bit boomy and not very convenient. I'm sure a seriously good DAC can improve things but also have a sneaking suspicion that USB, async or otherwise, just isn't up to the job.
