What is an audiophile? Are you an audiophile?


I had been pondering this question since I have been involved in audio. Not sure what audiophile means. I went to a few fellow audio gurus get together events and although I had fun and liked the company, I felt out of place. In fact of the opinions and passion people here on Audiogon have, I do not have such strong attachments. So what is your take.... are you an audiophile? If you are, how do you know?

What about the guy that can't hear anymore but still composes music, by laying their head on the piano? Being able to hear GOOD, I'm not so sure.. It's a memory thing too.. You can remember the way it sounds in your head. Can't YOU? I sure can. Mercy gonna be a slippery slope when the memory goes though.. Flash cards.. that will work.. LOL

A person that enjoys "their" type of music or sound. They are ALWAYS close.. AND hear that perfect sound.  Not always though..
Change genre a bit and;

Tinker

Tinker..

Not always easy going from Highland music, with bagpipes and a Pan flute, to hard core rock and roll.. or island music to chamber music.

BUT that tinker, tinker, tinker...
