You know you have audiophile system when...


The definition of an audiophile systems is truly unknown, but recently after dabbling with tube rolling, power cables, and interconnects my system achieved a level where its clarity was no longer what grabbed my attention. Instead, I was distinctly hearing the bloom and decay of every note in the music. It’s just a different level that I believe has me listening to music differently.  It translates into greater dynamics and voices and instruments having more distinct vibrato characteristics.

Let's take it from the system user's viewpoint:

-an audiophile is one who needs music to listen to his system;

-music-lover is someone who needs the system to listen to the music.

In this light, "sounds good is all that matters" can apply to both categories.

 

I guess we're all music-lovers tuning our systems to better enjoy the music
