An hour on the second system in the morning while drinking my morning tea and catching up on email and news, an hour with coffee after lunch on the main system, and then serious listening during the cocktail hours, usually about 5-7pm.

When I’m not on a Teams meeting or traveling, it’s playing in the background all day long.

Listening Habits
Well, I was a bit apprehensive in answering… The truth is, it’s not enough. But tonight I’m listening to The Rolling Stones high def and it is all too apparent why I strive to listen to the best; source and hardware. I feel blessed.

I listen each day, usually 2+ hours at a time.
Some days I enjoy more than one listening session in a day.

I have my office system playing at least 8 hours a day. I spend about 2 hours per day in the "serious audio room" .

The family is away this holiday weekend (MLK Day 2023); I decided to paint the media room. Put on the system (different room , but cranked it since it was just me and the dog), selected 'Moanin' by Art Blakey and let Roon take over. Hit the jackpot! One of the best jazz playlists ever. That is what it is all about. The dog went downstairs to hide in the rec room - his loss.

It has changed a lot over the years. Now that I'm retired and the kids are long gone, I have much more flexibility. I listen for about 1-2 hours per night, but the wife and grandkids take precedence if we are doing something. In the winter, there are days I'll sit in the listening chair for several hours during the day. In spring, summer, and fall, I have other hobbies that get me outside for extended periods of time like RC airplanes.
The good thing about my current system is no listening fatigue. If my active dog didn't come to get me for her walks, I would spend even more time in the chair some days.
