Why Don't More People Love Audio?


Can anyone explain why high end audio seems to be forever stuck as a cottage industry? Why do my rich friends who absolutely have to have the BEST of everything and wouldn't be caught dead without expensive clothes, watch, car, home, furniture etc. settle for cheap mass produced components stuck away in a closet somewhere? I can hardly afford to go out to dinner, but I wouldn't dream of spending any less on audio or music.

Cause most people couldnt hear a difference between them unless the circumstances were extreme. I've been in the music industry for along time, and it never ceases to amaze me how many people can't hear music at all. Most wouldn't know clear from buzzy. Lossless from a low quality ripped mp3. And I won't even get into bright and warmth, and a smooth top to bottom speaker. This is from people who are in the recording/studio industry!!

If a person could tell the difference, they would spend the money. It's not a matter of rich vs poor IMO. Most people think Bose is still great, just because the marketing says so, and the fact there ears can't tell them otherwise.

Just my opinions
