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

oldhvymec,

In your menagerie of musical instruments you surely may find a place for this one.....

Lotus Europas were sort of plastic, and maybe drive well...but after seeing a new one burn up years ago (fuel leak I imagine) it looked like it had melted into the street...actually had known the guy who owned it and couldn't say anything...sad...

Such crazy details sometimes increase the appeal of things. Kind of like prices of Cygnet going up now and it becoming a desirable car. It is beyond me why. Europa have been a crappy car, but it was my Matchbox when I was very little so it could not be uncool. To make it worse, I was dreaming of seeing one last night. I should stop reading audiogon.

"The premium supermini market is a good place to be at the moment but Aston got it wrong in thinking putting a grill and a fancy interior on what was basically a Toyota iQ would make people buy it," he said."

Turns out customers are not all as stupid as many marketers think ... only about 150/yr of them for the Cygnet.

You're all a bunch of boring audiophiles :))
