I Don't Want to be an Audiophile, What am I...


I don't know why I don't like the term Audiophile. There is just something about it I don't like. Too Euro Trash maybe? Perhaps Hobbyist is a better description for me?

AUDIO:
sound, especially when recorded, transmitted, or reproduced.
PHILE
denoting fondness for a specified thing.

AUDIOPHILE: fondness for sound especially when recorded, transmitted or reproduced.

A better word is going to hard to find. 

Sound aficionado maybe

 

One of the definitions of audiophile was that it is a disease and I always knew I had it… always a pursuit that was a bit more than just passionate. That one audio dollar  equals about $100 regular dollars. Also that my audio system has always been of far greater value than my car… one of the tests to see if you have the disease. It has been incredibly rewarding.
