It sucks to get old!

 

Your thoughts?

 

It seems to me that getting old is grace. If we know, of course, what grace is. The intellectual and emotional merry-go-round slows down, you can get off safely without fear of breaking your neck. There is nowhere to run and nothing to strive for. Everything happens as it is, no reason to fight and follow up with arguing within you head. And stopping the pursuit of endless "improvements" is only a natural consequence to this :-)

BTW, the answer to the OP question is not difficult at all. If you've suddenly realized that you want and ready to enjoy music without regard to so-called 'sound quality', you're ready to graduate. Audiophilia is a complicated disease, and its implications for the mind and the wallet are considerable, but recovery is possible.

One would think that, by now, a vaccine has been developed and is available to cure it.

 

What everyone need now is a one big vaccine to cure stupidity and contagious fear.
