Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles?

Nothing wrong with old equipment fleschler. My speakers were made in 1981. I still have them because nothing better has come along that I like better. My original amps finally blew so they have been changed. Preamp and phono amp are 25 years old and I have no inclination to change them. It is time for a new turntable as the wow and flutter after cleaning is a not so hot 0.30 % . I've got a new belt coming but I have a feeling that won't fix it. It owes me nothing. 
I believe an audiophile is a music lover that manages his own system. A lot of people buy a system and use it. They never try new equipment or play with their gear. If something breaks they call the shop who deals with it. They are not about to care about their turntables wow and flutter and probably have no idea what that means. They also don't get sucked into directional wire and cable elevators. Only an audiophile can delude themselves into thinking that stuff works. 
Boom🎆

You contradicted yourself saying an audiophile likes old equipment and tries to keep it if it sounds good to them, then you say audiophiles are tweakers who delude themselves with useless stuff (which is true much of the time).

Where is the contradiction?

You said only an audiophile deludes themself after saying they wouldn’t get sucked into directional wire or Cable elevators.

asvjerry,
I think I dislike "bi-phile" even more than "double audiophile". How about "audiophile overachiever"?

glupson,
I’ve never owned a Porsche either. Have owned a Mercedes, BMW (car & bikes), & an old Land Rover which made me realize I had to suffer to enjoy the automobile hobby.
