Are you an Audiophile?

I consider myself an audiophile, but compared to some of the people here I'm not even semi-serious. The hardcore audiophile is out there listening to new equipment, going to audio shows, having "shoot-outs" with their audio buds, endlessly tweaking, matching power cords to individual components, etc. I might buy 3 or 4 components a year (spread out over all my systems), take the time to set them up -- occasionally refine the setup, but basically just listen to the music. I try not to make it as complicated as I see some people appear to make it.

Nor do you qualify if you cannot hear the difference between 4ft and 5ft power cords of the same model. 5ft always sounds better, by the way.

If you're on 120v 5' sounds better. If you're on 50hz 4' sounds better because the lower frequency gives more current.

Thank you, I didn't know that.
