What is a different between an investment and buying a lottery ticket?

wordsmith,

do you know that there are a lot of people who spend month to listen and eventually punches “audio garbage”? Do you know that there are the designers who design and manufacture the audio equipment without actually listening their products (and the results do “sound” well)? Do you know that there are people who are able to discard a system/component after 10 second of listening?

Perhaps the answer lays not in the listening itself but knowing what to listen ? The ironic fact that YOU (not you particularly but just “you”) is not necessary the reference evaluating devise. (This is VERY big topic). So, if YOU did not listen then you "just hear"...
But… to hear from who?

From a neighbor within your audio mental institution? From the audio propaganda? From a manufacturer, who have no objective background or the correct knowledge to "evaluate"? From yourself, whos audio demands fluctuate like a Multiwaved Powerplant? From your big brother dealer, who got bitten dally, if he dose not bring cash to his wife? Fro the musicians who can’t appreciate the “soundstage” and the “resolution”?

Did you find yourself that you can predicts the sound of “a system” based upon the totally bizarre parameters (like the context of AA post)... Are you sure that you able to hear being only in the “sweet spot”?
