Here's the quote that the OP referred to: "I figure theres perhaps 100,000 Audiophiles in the world. 700 or so of them read this daily post I write." It's from Paul McGowan's daily blog that can be found here: http://www.pstracks.com/pauls-posts/what-if-no-one-was-there/3654/ Paul is in a better position to estimate the number of audiophiles than we 'Goners. He runs PS Audio and is probably in regular contact with many people working in the high end audio industry. However you define an audiophile and even if Paul is way off on his estimate, things are tough in the audio business. |

Good one Hotmailjbc. I did the calculations in my head. The answer is, a pretty freakin insignificant percentage of the population. It didn't matter whether my starting number was US population or world population. |
