HiFi lacking social recognition?


Luxury or HiEnd audio did not make it into Forbes "10 Best ways to blow your bonus" while leather handbags, cars, traveling, hotel parties did. Is it a sign that our hobby is eiter completely irrelevant to even the richest or on the contrary such an essential part of living that this is not a luxury habit at all, just plain basic need satisfaction?

ironically, 'best buy' started life as 'the sound of music', a store specializing in mid and high end two channel. they just went with the flow.
foster nails it. even most record/music collectors have no use for audiophiles.
attend THE show, or others.....the equipment changes, but the same six records get played year after year, and the same faces ....like an episode of the twilight zone....a comicbook convention has more excitement.
