What Is This Hobby?

I frequently see in this forum references to "this hobby" and I'm always a little confused by the phrase. What exactly is this hobby?

Onhwy61 (System \| Threads \| Answers \| This Thread) Onywy61, it's not difficult to assemble a high quality system, especially if you have a little money. What I've learned is you can assemble a system of quality pieces that produces average sound. Matching the right gear is the challenge, but that's how you get great sound; and having a complimentary room. Matching the gear well to get great sound is what can be difficult.
