How any "wall pluggers" are out there?


Like most of you I am sick of audio terms like"jaw dropping" but here I go adding another.
I propose that we address all the music loving audiphiles amongst us who see after market tweaks, wires, power cords and power conditioning as "wall pluggers".

Nothing derogatory.Like a "tree hugger", unless you find that term derogatory.

So, there goes a new term that I hope is not offensive, but describes those who feel our hobby can go to extremes sometimes.

Now what they want to call the rest of us who don't share their point of view, I'll leave that to your imagination.

What the hell are you trying to say anyway? Collect your thoughts, slow down and consider using good grammar...then hit the submit button.
I'm a "straight plugger". If I hear any interference, something in the electrical path needs to be addressed. Nothing better than good old juice straight from the main distribution panel. One exception: If your area suffers from power surges (or dips), then you have no choice but to protect you equipment.
I prefer the term techno-weenie, to denote one who dedicates more time to equipment, tweaks, cords, wire etc. than listening to music. You know who you are, the ones with more time on test/demo discs than music. Those who have three songs they listen to, trying to get just a little more of.....well something. This group....well I like them. They keep the audio infused with fresh bunches of cash so the cash flow can keep audio shops open and I can go and evaluate new gear. Thanks to you all, keep up the good "wall plugging, tweaking, wires schmires, knuckle draggin" the economy needs you.....Jallen
I should have used Preview first.

To clarify, a "wall plugger" would be the type of audiophile who likes to add nothing extraneous to his system-plugging straight into the wall, sans upgraded power cords, power conditioning and the like.An anti-tweaker.
Again, sorry for the poor initial post.

But irregardless of how the post was interpreted one thing jumps out at me crystal clear-the polarized climate that has evolved over the years in this hobby.

An audiophile today is either in one camp or the other.
My term "wall plugger" was not intended to cause a flame war or resentment.
But I can't help but note how much pent up anger seems to be on the rise in this hobby, a hobby that was, until the internet, a pretty solitary one.
'Wall plugger" is a lot less derogatory than some of the phrases that wall pluggers use to describe non wall pluggers.
Which brings me to another trait shared by most if not all wall pluggers.
They pretty much want to protect everyone from financial ruin. Anyone who buys an upscale power cord must surely be on the road to fiscal insolvency.Let's save him!, poor idiot.
Show him the error of his ways.Make him prove that there is some scientific reason why he would spend more than a few dollars on a power cord.

It never used to be this way.
