Types of Audiophiles

The jewelry types.   Each piece is jewelry, be it a cable, or even a cable end. The blue VU meters to the feel of the volume knob.  I myself found the high-end volume knobs around 1980 felt sexy. 

ME! ME! ME! ME! 🤣

Definitely Bean Counter, with a focus on trying to find value that goes well beyond price.  A great deal of the enjoyment in this hobby (for me) is the thrill of the hunt (for value)!

@erik_squires Agreed, I think we all are audiophiles, not because we claim to be but simply by enjoying the process.

"I Am The Walrus"
("Magical Mystery Tour" Version)
 

I am he
As you are he
As you are me
And we are all together

See how they run
Like pigs from a gun
See how they fly
I'm crying

Sitting on a cornflake
Waiting for the van to come
Corporation tee shirt
Stupid bloody Tuesday
Man, you been a naughty boy
You let your face grow long

I am the eggman (Ooh)
They are the eggmen, (Ooh)
I am the walrus
Goo goo g' joob

Mister city p'liceman sitting pretty
Little p'licemen in a row
See how they fly
Like Lucy in the sky
See how they run
I'm crying
I'm crying, I'm crying, I'm crying

Yellow matter custard
Dripping from a dead dog's eye
Crabalocker fishwife pornographic priestess
Boy you been a naughty girl
You let your knickers down

I am the eggman (Ooh)
They are the eggmen (Ooh)
I am the walrus
Goo goo g' joob

Sitting in an English
Garden waiting for the sun
If the sun don't come
You get a tan from standing in the English rain

I am the eggman
They are the eggmen
I am the walrus
Goo goo g' joob g' goo goo g' joob

Expert texpert choking smokers
Don't you think the joker laughs at you?
See how they smile
Like pigs in a sty, see how they snied
I'm crying

Semolina pilchards
Climbing up the Eiffel Tower
Element'ry penguin singing Hare Krishna
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe

I am the eggman (Ooh)
They are the eggmen (Ooh)
I am the walrus
Goo goo g' joob
Goo goo g' joob
G' goo goo g' joob
Goo goo g' joob, goo goo g' goo g' goo goo g' joob joob
Joob joob...

..spent hours moving spouses’ 2 monitors and stands on her office desk ’to the right a bit’ and unsnarling the cables on Sunday pm...

Today: "The monitors are too close to me...." so it gets undone, taken off the gas stand 2 monitor stand, restored to the original stands of the monitors (which had gotten squirreled away in her office and mistook for the ones of my monitors...similar, but not the same ’fit’...)....

"Use the rawhide hammer..."

Hammer a monitor....yeah, right... 😣

She found hers, finally. Snap, done....

...and wonders why I can get ’cranky’ when I’d like to spend a day re-running lines to my speakers to restore some sense to the non-sense....

...and why I may want to reach through one of my monitors and apply a ’dope slap’ to an innocent....*emoji unavailable*

@erik... catagorize away, you’ve just ’fingerprinted’ the surface.... ;)
