Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles?

Just like those driving a Porsche SUV can join PCA (digital audio fans can join Audiogon) but are certainly not Porschephiles unless they also own a coupe (Panamera owners I guess gets a pass here).

Please respond with a yes or no and we'll tally a vote for the first 100 responses.

What Mike said. A Porschephile is defined by an appreciation for the marque, and not by which model he happens to drive.

I really like the recent trend in working Porsche into the threads. There may be hope for this site yet.

Audiophiles are a dying breed. I say we admit members with smartphones and a good pair of headphones, not require they must suffer with 100 year old + technology to prove their worth.
To be fair, quite a few of us have really good ears and enjoy good sound reproduction.

I don’t see very many people knocking on the door for admittance.
