![]() I don’t have to worry about any of my recent stuff being made obsolete, or having support withdrawn, so they feel like an investment more than just about any other tech product which I know will be useless in about 3 years. The reason why I’ve been able to build up to such a solid network of Sonos products is because they’re so modular, and Sonos has a focus on making sure the new things are compatible with the old things. Quality can’t double forever, the human ear can only process so much. But the Fives paired with a Sub are the best I’ve encountered under $3,000, which is the point of diminishing returns when it comes to audio products. ![]() That honour goes to a $150,000 pair of Meridian speakers I listened to in England once. Multi-room audio is truly a dream to use when it works this well.ĭon’t get me wrong, these are not the best speakers I’ve ever heard.

I have different headphones for each use scenario, and have gone through many different hi-fi set ups over the years.īut, while my headphones collection is ever growing with pairs being subbed in and out as my tastes change, my primary hi-fi set up has only expanded, not been overhauled for more than eight years (which I think might be the longest I’ve ever gone). The problem with being a tech nerd in love with music (and a musician) is that I have quite particular taste in the gadgets I use to listen to music. Plus, if given the option between music and silence, why would you ever choose the latter? Noise cancelling headphones in a crowd reduce anxiety and sensory overload, and music in the background while working means focussing on the work and not getting distracted by every random thought. I almost always have some playing, because it’s how I regulate my emotions and feel the passage of time.
