yes the fun is listening to music but that is mostly enjoyment and wallowing in your hifi performance.. pure bliss. but bliss and fun are not necessarily the same!! Fun is seeing if that Nordost cable ( BTW I hate nordost cables) actually does improve on my existing cabling.. etc.. or whether mains cables are just snake oil!! Then the hobby of Hifi becomes a pastime of not just listening to music but even bigger!! Music is a large part of the whole package, but not all the package..
