You know you're an audiophile if--


You just got a pair of speakers you can barely move yourself (inverse proportionality with age probably too)

The first house you bought cost less than your current stereo investment (ditto)

You have boxes of cables with which you don't know what to do

When you dream of your stereo. Or a power cable like last night. A POWER CABLE! The whole time! I need help.
Boy, I read some of these and I say that, "atleast I am not that bad"! Then I sit here looking at four components brisling with Vacuum Tubes, next to a Solid State Universal Player, next to a Turntable, and next to a Computer. What's wrong with this picture? Nothing, but there might be something very wrong with the guy sitting next to this stuff! Don't think that I am going to try having sex with it though, sounds painful!
You know you're an audiophile if- spending $800 on a 1 meter pair of IC's seems like a bargain!
if you've ever considered selling off your stereo and getting out of the "hobby." Otherwise, you're a melomane, just like me.

Hi Arthur, I looked up "melomane" in two dictionaries and could not find a description.
