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

It’s

Dear @glupson : you are rigth. I posted that way because is something I pasted but whon says that the chemical developed neurotransmitters changes the discrete electric impulses binary condition to a continuos one other that what you stated?

Many years ago and obviously way before this and other threads about I listened from some one the digital status of the human beens and everything shows to that direction.

"Dear @glupson : you are rigth."

I would like to use your quote from now on.

I forgot what the details were, but someone earlier mentioned action potential, too. I am not sure if it was supposed to be analog, digital, continuous, or something else in that sentence. Still, if anyone is keeping tabs, it is not continuous.

 My life has been full of music since I was 5. That’s when I received for Christmas my first transistor radio and shortly after began piano lessons. Of course I’m a macho guy and transitioned to... you guessed it, the drums. For years and years I played along with the music and with a few lessons and I mean a few I taught myself to play. Middle school thru high school I was the band geek, plus the very competitive sports fanatic who also excelled at baseball. Unfortunately drumming ended for a while after a major left arm injury and I didn’t play again for 15 years. Once I could manage it I bought a Fender jazz deluxe and taught myself to play. Now I could play rush on my bass...well not really but I did learn to play ok even with my arm limitations. Years later I was able to build a kit most would envy and passed on the love of drumming to my son who had Neal talent. In 1986 I bought my first stereophile magazine and my life changed. Goodbye Radio shack, hello ocd, please help me become a audiophile. Please do not nullify this “audiophile“ with a lack understanding.

I guess firstly I'm a Porschephile and audiophile second  I just sold my 96 993 speedyellow 911 Turbo but still have a 78 911 SC  I've always been interested in well engineered sporty cars. When I was 24 I bought a BMW 2002ti and at that time no one knew what the heck it was. I owned many BMW M cars over the years and decided to try Porsche for a change. Turned out to be one hell of an investment!! Also in my early 20,'s I got tired of listening to my friends stereo systems that made my ears bleed from clipping! There must be somthing better and I ended up with a Marantz 2265B and Teac casset player and Cerwin Vega speakers
By the time the 90's rolled around l bought a VAC PA 80 80 and a ARC LS 15 that l still have today 
Over the years I've gone though many speakers and currently have a pair of Maggie's. 7's
and have recently added a Exogal comet plus DAC and Audiolab 6000N streamer. I also have a very good 5.1 system.Did I spend FU money, I don't think so, I'm I an Audiophile? I think so???
