How large (or small) is the audiophile market?


Just curious, how big is the total market for audiophile hardware?  There seem to be a lot of manufactures vying for a a small pool of potential buyers.  I've read in places that as boomers age the market is shrinking.  I don't know very many young people, but none that i do know are into it.  Anyone have any idea what the total market size is?

Again, AI can read but it can’t judge. Yet.

Yes, I concur, @gano. Don’t get me wrong—I see AI as a tool to help locate useful information, provided it’s deemed reliable. That’s all. I do recognize that there are many mistakes in AI-generated information.

I don't quite understand why the people here blaming AI generated information being faulty.  All the 'AI' information provided by @cdc have proper sources.  The only exception is for "Hi-Fi Audiophile Headphones" but here is the source for it "Impactful Marketing Research Co. on May 15, 2025."

It’s even more amazing that people blaming put out their own unfounded judgments, seemingly believing their information is more reliable than market research. Where is your justification, people?
