|

there are many ways to listen to the music you like. but do you really LISTEN to it, perceive it?
do you give yourself time and listen concentrated, maybe using headphones?
do you do other shit like browsing the web and thus listen casually?
do you listen to it during your driveway to the job while thinking about issues? skipping through the tracks?
I'd just be curious as I know there are many collectors out there that of corpse spend more time in doing this and that than listening to records carefully. |

| Earphones is the best way to hear an album. Especially when I'm out walking the dog. I do my best not to think about anything other than not getting knocked down by traffic and hearing the music. |

I get a lot of my listening done in the car while driving to and from work. I give as much attention to them as I can, while paying attention the road obviously.
At home I listen to LP's, usually with no distractions at all besides the jacket/inserts etc . I don't listen much with headphones because my cord is too short to reach to the couch and I don't want to sit on the cold wooden floor. Do cord extensions decrease sound quality much in that respect, or is there a relatively cheap ( ~ $100) pair of wireless headphones with good sound that someone recommends ? |

have an AKG with good extension (4 meters or what). wireless headphones? I would not recommend them (gut instinct). |

| I imagine there are plenty of high quality wireless ones... but they are probably much more than I'm willing to pay. I suppose I should invest in some extensions. |

UsuaIly I have these nocturnal album listening sessions with headphones. Just sitting in the dark and focusing on the music.
I listen music quite a bit while driving to work, being on computer etc. but that's just not the same thing for me. |

Headphones is the only real way to listen to an album. Most of my time listening to music is spend walking to/from work via headphones.
If i'm on the computer, I'll just put something on shuffle and hear that through speakers. _________________ Listen to Countess. |

At work I have a midnight shift so I usually get in about 4-5 hours on my headphones without interruption. At home I have my own little record room and can play music pretty loud during the day time, and then with some good headphones in the evening. _________________ Trade/Sale List
