Have you turned your loved ones into audiophiles

My seven year old absolutely loves listening to my system with me. When she sees me head up the stairs to listen, she frantically races past me to be the first one in the listening room.

Normally, she sits on my lap while I listen and will give me signals when she disapproves of the sound - too loud, too digital, etc. She is very calm when I play vinyl (testament to its superiority?)

Last week, a buddy of mine burned me a copy of Ozric Tentacles and we played it together; but she did NOT approve! She folded back her ears, puffed up her tail, then ran off screeching.

Oh well, can't please them all the time. A budding audiophile, nonetheless.

Cyclonicman: Nice!

The dog seems to like my system!!!!!!!!!!!

Both of my daughters spin vinyl. One is into classic rock, and the other collects classic opera performances.

My wife is happy with anything that plays Barry Manilow and Celine Dion. I gave her an iPod a couple of years ago and insist that she uses ear buds.

I successfully indoctrinated 2 of my 3 kids by 18 months. My middle child is too much in to building things, tinkering with things, and the like to get much in to music or audio. In a couple years I'm going to buy a small speaker kit and we'll build it together and those will be his bedroom speakers. Maybe that will get him in to audio. :)

My oldest already comments on the difference in sound between the home stereo, the computer, and the car stereos - and started doing so at age 2! :) Needless to say, I'm a proud papa. :)
