Ok. Does starting small, like viewing lead to more serious offenses? Like posting. Which can lead to thrifting and yard saleing. Then on to deeper involvement such as vintage speaker hoarding.
Seems like every speaker hoarder started as a simple lurker. There may be a connection. Lurking is the gateway.
I concur with JDK above. Only time silver wire made a difference for me is rewiring of tone cables inside the tonearm tube. Various Infinity IRS models made no difference between copper & silver. Keep in mid that I am in my late 50s, a younger fellow may hear an improvement.
