    Rediscovering favourite music with a better chain is one of my favourite things.. "where did that guitar come from?".

    and when you thought a record can't elicit an emotional response after so many years... then the final song comes in and I am in tears.

    Ah, yes... those "I never heard that before" moments.

    Makes it all worthwhile :)

    It is not just the detail, but the dynamics, micro stuff, timbre and lifelike voices.

    It's the face of my mum who loves Elvis, Beatles and Queen listening to my setup for the first time! That holy schiit moment.

    It's like meeting someone you had a crush on 10, 20, 50 years ago and now she (or he) looks 100x better!!! :-D

    Often hearing little catches in the singer's breath is the killer for me, for some reason.

    On the other hand, Nirvana's "In Utero" does not improve- it's such a soupy morass, a lot of the highs in the percussion simply do not exist to reproduce fully any more. When a track lets you actually hear what Dave Grohl is doing, it's a shock.

    Yeah... badly recorded stuff will sound bad. I have been trying to tame Klemperer's Beethoven Missa Solemnis for years. Now I have given up. Those engineers really fu**ed it up.
