An Audiophile is Anyone Who Loves Audio Regardless of Monetary Status. Agree?

One group should not be allowed to monopolize the term above another as their own status symbol. you i and anyone else who likes audio can be considered an audiophile regardless of the size of your bank account.

The term audiophile has a somewhat negative connotation to me.  Too many audiophiles don’t know what they are talking about (especially here).  I’m not an audiophile just an enthusiast.

@n80 “On a more serious side, no, I don’t think you can be an audiophile without a good deal of disposable income.”  That is the silliest thing I have heard here in a long time.

From Wikipedia -  An audiophile is a person who is enthusiastic about high-fidelity sound reproduction.

That about covers it.

That can only mean you haven't been here long or you haven't been paying attention.
