"Audiophiles like modern speakers...Music Lovers like vintage speakers!"
I think, audiophiles are sound lovers. They constantly like to try new gears for better sound (which may not necessarily end up being better, but just different)
Music lovers focus on music, spending lots of time on listening to music (either at home or at concerts).
Audiophiles tend to be affluent and usually have enough money to spare for gears from time to time, or frequently overspends compared to their income level, sometimes leaving their family in despair. Or yet, skillful and crazy enough to build their own gears at relatively cheap cost, or smart enough to buddy with rich folks who can afford high end gears and enjoy the sound from their buddys' systems.
Many audiophiles are music lovers, but I guess rather small amount of music lovers are audiophiles.
Just my opinion. I would rather say myself a music lover, but trying to be an audiophile with stiff opposition from WAF.
