How much time do you get to enjoy your A/V gear?

[ontherocks]

With life's never ending chores, how much "real" time do you get to enjoy your A/V gear? Daily, weekly, monthly......?
By "real" I mean not getting some work done while you listen to music or view something? Nothing/no one to bother, nothing going at the back of your mind, just plain sit/lay and listen/view.

weekends I lock myself in my HT room!!!

With so much of tension going around I enjoyed my system most when I was a student.....but now when ever I listen to music or watch movies something always goes on at the back of my mind.......

 

[pdhanwada]

I try to find 5 to 10 hours of listening time per week.

It's always on baby!

 

[dillihifi]

On an average around 15-20 hrs per week excluding viewing of sporting events on TV

max 2 hours per week in summer, HT room is non A/C and probably 3 -4 hours there after. Sometimes wife becomes so furious at the gears that I have to sacrifice my hobby for an effective truce.

 

[theironhorse]

2-3 hours a day but not critical.

 

[spirovious]

I get atleast 1 hour for music in a day.For movies 5-7 hrs in a week(mostly 2 days).

Night-time listener --- that means PC-audio/headphones as its a small house.

The hifi is mostly neglected, and it tends to be turned on more often by wife than by me. I guess we should worker harder at the shared musical experience!

The hifi,minimum a couple of hours everyday.. weekends it may stretch to 3 or 4 hours. Very less time for movies however, just a movie or two per week,thats it..

Mine too ........

The living room (Topping + JBL) gets a dose of @ 5-6 hours daily... LOUD
HT Room @ 2-3 hours daily (Wharfies) .... music only ... no movies ... LOUD
1 Bed Room (Sony) .... @ 10-12 hours daily.... LOW VOLUME

So, that makes it 21 hours in all ..... averaged out time.

I used to get 4 hours a day (9PM to 1PM) for music+movies on weekdays, till about a couple of months ago. Back then I used to listen to music for 2 hours or so and watch a movie for the rest of the time. I prefer to listen to music actively rather than leave it on in the background, so time spent on music is 100% music and nothing else.

Nowadays I get about 2-2.5 hours a day max (10PM to 12PM). I usually spend the time watching a movie, and then listening to music for the rest of the time. I lost 2 hours as I get home later, and go to sleep a bit earlier (so I get time for exercise in the morning).

I'm working on getting it back to 4 hours a day by getting home earlier

I have nearly all of sunday free. I used to watch 2-3 movies on sunday and spend the rest of the time listening to music. Nowadays I go out on saturday evening and stay out nearly all night, so most of sunday morning is spent catching up on sleep. And I go out on sunday afternoon most sundays and stay out till late night. I've spent quite a few saturday evenings and sundays now without music or movies. I think I like it this way.

 

[sbg]

6-8 hours / month ( movies and music on HT )
about 40-60 hours /month on PC based ( Games,Movies and music )
about 3-4 hours daily,about 70hrs/month while commuting to and from office.
about 2-10 hours doing DIY a month ( I'm still within the definition of A/V gears, right! ).
about 30 hours/ month on hifivision ( am I still within the definition of A/V gears?:indifferent14: ).

Hi all,

Mine is probably the worst.

I listen to about 1-1.5 hours a week sometimes and movies maybe 1 a month because of space constraints.
