Once I got married I just became less interested in sitting passively in front of a pair of speakers, which is rather a solitary pursuit.
We started to go to more live concerts, and once the kids arrived (three within 18 months!) I had little or no free time and when we did get some we preferred to get out and try and resurrect our social lives. Even now the only time I have to listen to music is after my wife and children have gone to bed. The weekends are chock full of family "activities". I used to spend Saturday mornings listening to records. Now I spend it on the side of a football or cricket pitch watching my sons and chatting to the other poor sods in the same predicament. -- TheLastMan Matt *SqueezeBoxes:* SB Duet (Controller + two receivers) *Server:* Synology Diskstation 107+ NAS (with firmware 2.3-1157) running Squeezebox Server 7.5.0 on Synology Package Manager *Network:* Netgear DG834GT ADSL modem/router, 2 x Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 as access points *Livingroom:* Receiver into Naim 42/110 amp, B&W CM2 speakers *Kitchen:* Receiver into Denon DM37 mini-system, B&W 686 speakers *Study:* Linn LP12, Naim 72/Hi-cap/Headline.
