Audiophiles get NO respect

This is not a new observation but it still hurts. Here's an excerpt from an article in the latest GQ (Jan, p. 188) on the problem with overly loud cd mastering:

"There's a lot of stuff written about CD mastering that ventures into the realm of the audiophile, where squabbles over coaxial cables and sub pre-outs are conducted by the kind of men you suspect may never have seen a lady naked, or at least not in the flesh."

Ouch! LOL!!

I humbly disclose that since the age of about 16, I always used impressive audio gear and good music to pull chicks, including my now wife who is tall, thin, good humored, well educated, and strikingly beautiful.

In particular, planar speakers were always good for this.

Maybe its just an example of someone who isn't interested in listening to music, having said that, does the same apply to other people, or anything else besides his writings

What are you doing readin GQ anyway, are you some kind of weirdo. Read a real man's magazine like Penthouse or Playboy.
