In Reply to: if you start children out listening to high quality music then they will continue to love high quality music posted by three_sox on January 15, 2011 at 16:41:55:
"I don’t see that happening with either children or adults." - likely due to MP3 and so on, plus hi-fi no longer common, and no one can stand in a chair for more than 10 minutes.
"I also think it is arrogant IF you are suggesting children or adults can’t or don’t discern high quality music playback when they hear it." - maybe, but when most everyone these days is only exposed to low quality, i think theey loose the ability to tell the dif
"Anecdotally lots of folks are subjected to not only good quality live music but also good quality reproduced music. However it seems only a small portion of those folks ever pursue buying high end audio equipment. It has never been any different has it?" - well they are a small percentage of the general public, and yes it was dif back in the 70s many people had mid-fi or hi-fi systems.
"As far as I can tell there is more high-end audio equipment being sold than ever before." - maybe in variety, but not in absolute numbers.
Give me analog or give me silence!
