I'm an audiophile. I will explain.

I can listen to music on two ways, both at the same time. The first obvious reason is the feeling reason, that everyone can relate to. Music gives the listener a feeling.

The second one is the important one. I can objectively analyse music by listening to the individual parts and listening to how those parts intertwine and work together to form the whole. This beauty, at least in my music, many music is lacking in quality of it, aids my first form of listening greatly to form a feeling of fulfillment to the highest level, sometimes touching the grace of God.

If you want some of my reccomendations in this field, listen to 'Heart of the Sunrise' by Yes or the 'Lark's Tongues', 'Starless' and 'Red' albums from King Crimson.

A sidenote that I want to make is that listening to music with headphones greatly adds to the experience. You get the sound louder, but not overpowering. This enables one to listen to the various nearly hidden aspects that are, at least in my music, greatly adding to the atmosphere of the song and to the greatness of the composition as a whole and on individual levels.
