How do you explain audiophiles to your friends?

I’ll start.

I tell them go to their local hardware store and get two gallons of white paint. But in one gallon add a drop of eggshell colored paint.

Paint half a wall with each.

A person who thinks they might be able to see a difference is a budding audiophile. The person who sees a night and day difference is THE audiophile.

Nothing wrong with geekism, of course, I tend that way myself - I just can't talk about it as well as many of the YouTube guys...

When hobbies last for years they are addictions I for one have the addition and an happy with it. Just saying. By the way the friend has their addiction or they have never explored life. The saying around my house is “If not now then when”. Enjoy life, do what works and spurge with those things that make you happy!
