What do you say to your audiophile friends who say you just listen to your equipment more


Than your music. I have my retort but let me hear yours. Not everybody understands us. Thanks.

My audiophile friends don't say this to me. I listen to a broad range of music types, and don't stick with only albums with great sonics. Heck, my audiophile friend probably say I need to pay more attention to my equipment....
What do you say to your audiophile friends who say you just listen to your equipment more than your music?

As reubent already pointed out this is not the kind of thing audiophiles say. But, its a serious question because its something audiophiles actually do. Moreover, its the kind of thing audiophiles SHOULD do- BUT there is a time and a place for everything. So its a serious question, and deserves a lot more than a retort.

So instead of retort I would answer, "Yes, this is a very real problem. The point of it all is to be carried away by the music. In order to do this we break it down into lots of little pieces. Its easy sometimes to get carried away with that, and lose sight of the goal. Thanks for reminding me."
