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

I’m a retired audio production engineer.  My hearing went south years ago.  I do wear decent hearing aids.  That said I enjoy the music.  For me that’s what it’s all about.  And I still like the knobs and dials aspect of audiophile-com.  
A simple upgrade in a phono cartridge (2M Blue) got me listening to vinyl again.

Still, it’s all about the music.

Yes

and the only reason I bought a 911 was I was so impressed with my Macan S.  Porsche sales are driven by the SUVs and many fans of the brand don’t have one yet...

It might be said there are different levels of the audiophile hobby.
Level 1: digital
Level 2: vinyl
Level 3 : tape (15 ips)
Im a level 2 that can’t afford level 3.

there is a level 4.......

1/2", 15ips tape.

Yes. I firmly believe audiophile is a label that should only be self applied. Of course, you’re allowed to look down your nose at other people, but don’t expect to be thanked or respected for it. Lure them in with the music as they like it, and you’ll get more opportunities to convert them to whatever esoteric, crazypants, eccentric predilections you’ve a developed over the years.

A moot question if one understands the definition of an audiophile - look it up.
