At what price is one considered an Audiophile.

How long is a piece of string?

It's all relative.  Some gear out there I dream of owning, some Audiophile gatekeepers, call it "midfi."  While my humble system would be an audiophile system to regular folks or those that are just entering the hobby.  

You could have a $10k pair of speakers and someone with a $50k+ pair of speakers might call those speakers beginner or midfi.  

Not much. Just my asking price.

It all depends on the quality of musical reproduction and enjoyment an owner gets from their system.  Other people don't matter.  Dealers don't matter.  Reviewers don't matter.  It's all about personal enjoyment and satisfaction.  

Don't try to get satisfaction from others.  Get satisfaction for yourself from the music.

one cents!

OP, I suggest you not spend much or your system will sound better than any of ours, and we won't like that.

That's why you get so many nonsense responses. They are poor people with mid-fi stereos and questionable hearing. They are also idealistic and detached from reality.

$10k, no less. And if you want Bill to envy you that would be half a million or so.
