I consider myself an audiophile precisely because i avoid the pitfall of obsessively buying anything especially or because it is very costly...(it is easy tough i dont have money) :)
I try to buy the best at the lowest cost, it takes me 5 years to do so.... for the last 2 years my choices being so good my buying spree at low cost is ended...
A true audiophile think mostly about embedding rightfully the audio system then putting it on the right track to reach his true potential optimal S.Q.
A true audiophile is able to made it possible at the lowest cost...
Buying costly gear is easy, anybody can.... Embedding it rightfully, with the necessary methods and controls, mechanically, electrically and acoustically, at very low cost, is being an audiophile...
A bunch of ready made branded new pricey tweaks is not a method tough ....
I have create methodically my own "tweaks" for my specific gear, house , and room....At peanuts costs, and some has been even scandalized by this possibility in this thread few hours ago and expressed their anger for this blasphemy against audio and against this pretense of mine....
But reviewers, marketers, and upgrading obsessive consumers are not audiophiles by birth ....The first 2 species sells products, the second one accumulate one piece of gear after another without thinking and believing that the last will be ready out of the box to be the best there is for high fidelity experience.... But this only gives frustrations and illusory experiences most of the times....A real experience is continuous and develop in time step by step on years....This is an audiophile history in the making because we become audiophile by owning a creative listening history, not by owning a product or a brand...
Audiophiles listen their music, because they love music and music train their ears and soul....
The main instrument of the audiophile is his listening history and ears experiments....
Most people mocking audiophile dont have a clue....Sorry....
