An audiophile is a person who got kicked off the debate and chess teams in HS because he was too, too nerdy.
What? What were the questions? Sorry, I am tweaking my VTF and Listening to Cootie Williams at the same time! Would you mind repeating whatever title of the record you were asking? Pressing? Mono or stereo?
If you can hear a difference when a dime is placed on top of one of your speakers, you're an audiophile.
