Are you an Audiophile?

I was an Audiophile a long time ago. Then I discovered that I was mistaken, it was really a 'Stupidphile'. How did I make that discovery? Simple, I was spending more money on gear then on 'the music'. Yes, it was a long 12 step program that did it.

No im just acting like one.HELLO!!!!!

Spending more money on gear than music is not stupid unless it really gets out of control. Good vinyl is quite expensive though.

Orpheus10, while you are clearly a music lover, as your many posts about music prove, you also frequently post about such things as recording quality, soundstage, neutrality, tubes, and the merits of analog/ digital. Oh, and you own tube amps, and custom-made speakers which you claim are completely neutral. You sir, are an audiophile.

I am reminded of the comedian commenting on John Boehner's chosen pronunciation of his last name: "Don't try to change what it is, man; embrace it!" :-)

Frogman, you cought me.
