Do you ever get that you can't be bothered to listen to music

I listen to music on my only system for usually 2 hours a day, but I listen every day unless I’m away from home. I’ve not missed a day, I always feel like listening to music every day (it’s a simple system, silver discs, int. amp & spks).

Oddly, c/w my wife and others I know, I don’t listen to music at all on the radio, in the kitchen, and I don’t use a DAP. I don’t drive so no music in the car!

Yes sometimes I go through phases of not listening much. Nothing wrong with that.

I go weeks at a time with no music, which suits me just fine. That’s why I’m selling my gear.

What you listening to right now

I listen to music pretty wellevery day. I use an iPod when I’m on the Turbo trainer in the garage. At lunchtime I like to have a post prandial nap with some quiet ish music from the streamer. Records tend to take a back seat during the summer months.

Looks like I'm not in the kind of a minority as I thought I might be on here.
I do find though when I have abstained it does sound better when returning.

Na, I sadly miss my system even when on holiday....I have good headphones though, so still get my daily fix of music...what I do bore of however is trying to find good new to me music...the Tidal update on a Friday is normally filled with utter tosh!

I listen to music 3 or 4 days a week summer or winter. In summer it's often in the garden via Spotify through my JBL speaker; in winter through the main system.

This year however, due to ever hotter summers, I have ditched all my Class A stuff in the main system, for an all in one digital system, so that may well change

Music has been part of my life every day since I was thirteen . In that time I do not recall any day when I did not listen to some music either from one of my systems , my DAP or radio . Since the recent uplifts in sound quality of my main system this is getting more attention every day so if anything I am listening to more not less music . No issues on what to listen to either I have a place to start or might be random/song button and see what happens .

A resounding ‘no’ here. Love music. While there’s always a time and a place, today’s been a good day for it (when the skies opened up earlier). It’s also given me a chance to tinker as I’ve swapped out amps and moved things about.

Ah you see today, took daughter to her DofE camp, then bike ride, then stripping wallpaper, out for a meal this pm, no time for music today.

See, there's your mistake. Prime listening time, right there. You're welcome

The Walkman comes out in the summer, so I probably listen to more music than usual.

had to be done, putting paper up I always play music, usually Placebo on an 1990's ghetto-blaster

I'm sure some will know the ref....

It's rare that I'm in the 'can't be bothered' mood, but there are certainly times when I'm not in the mood to listen. I'm not really much into 'casual' music, I suppose. It's OK, but I find it distracting and sometimes annoying.

Sometimes I'll listen day and evening endlessly. Other times I won't turn the system on for days at a time. It's all for pleasure, so there aint no rules.

I like to research equipment to see what is out there as a change from listening.
Then if I find something I'm interested in, I like to do mental arithmetic to see if it's obtainable. I never buy because I have more important things to do with my money. But it's fun to pretend .

If at home I practically listen to music every day, unless if on holiday. Sometimes a few minutes to several hours.

I feel most times system sounds really good but on rare occasions sounds sublime. All depends on whatever factor.
