I'm definitely drinking the wrong breakfast beverage.
I want what @asvjerry is having.
Types of Audiophiles
The Purist
A good stereo should be a transparent window into the recording session with no opinion or distortion of it’s own
The Dynamics Fanatics
A good stereo is like a thrill ride at a carnival. If I’m not jumping it isn’t worth listening to.
Live and Let Live
It’s all good man, put your money where your heart lies.
The Bean Counter
Buys gear like he’s stocking a used stereo store. Purchase price and retail value determine what comes and goes out.
The Canners
I bought my balanced headphones specifically so you wouldn’t ask me questions while I’m listening to dub step.
The Scientist
You can’t prove you have a soul so all your opinions are meaningless.
The Blind Follower
Can’t hear a difference between amp A and B so he wants to know if he should spend 5x more on B and will wait to be told which to get.
The Brand Loyalist
Falls in love with the idea of a brand or designer and changes his job to accommodate the demands of his audio jewelry

@waytoomuchstuff - excellent! And it's a good thing we never see genre narcissists on any of the music threads! 🤣 |
@waytoomuchstuff ...*sigh* 'Typical breakfast bev' is a fruit + tofu smoothie...Spouse Ev feels that smoothies are a food group. Typical chaser: Coffee, my spirit animal. Black, like my attitude. 🤨 Late night/early AM 'night creature' bev, anything that creates 'psychic ground'. ;) Not limited to liquids... I like your catagories, closer to realities.... B & S in our households includes the Animal Intrusions; 1 dog, 3 cats. Sunny D. Dog insists you must have something edible for her and will place 60 lbs. underfoot closely to prove it.... She's patient, and will wait. Has for 14+ years... Betty D. Boop, Ginger Boi', and Cleo Patra will alternately be drawn and repulsed by you, you stranger you. Cats that know speaker grilles and cones mark a feline for a moment of terror. Ergo, an Audiopetophile: Not your typical audidolt...*L* ;) Esoteritype (aka Exoteritrope): May subject guest listener to whatever has caught the ears and attention of late, 'genera obscura'.... Can be nearly anything; Human 'fails' or 'dance moves', loud launches, vehicles with notable exhaust notes (usually of high dB levels), 'music' that barely qualifies the description (sometimes and previously known as 'word jazz')... DIY Devote': Has objects that recreate sound; some in a fashion 'pleasing to the ear', some done just for the hell of it because it amuses the muse. Anyway...Happy Post Thanksgiving y'all. Stuffed roast duck, cranberrie', riced potatoe', and leftover green beans. Chocolate heart attack ice cream dessert. Hope yours was delicious as well. Stop by for an imbibe when in the locale, may be done here or elsewhere in the area, as this local focal locus is a tad obscure for company....*L* Have a great weekend, J |
