You might be an audiophile if...


With apologies to Mr. Jeff Foxworthy, thought it would be fun to come up with (clean) examples of the wretched excesses that us poor audiophiles are subject to. I'll start it off. Extra points for originality and wit.

You might be an audiophile if your stereo costs more than your car. Or your house.

You might be an audiophile if - you've ever had to choose between a girlfriend and a new pair of speakers.

You called Rives Audio to assist on the selection of your last home purchase (you'd be surprised how many times we've done this now).

You're designing a new home and you spend more time with Rives Audio than you do with your architect on the remainder of the home.

You converted a barn in your backyard into the ultimate audiophile getaway.

You are a successful practicing doctor(s) and decide to abandon that to sell high end audio equipment and have Rives Audio design the showrooms (two brothers come to mind here).

You ever considered buying a building in Manhatten to build the ultimate audio room because you wanted it convenient and closer to your office. (true story)

The last words you heard before you made an audio purchase were: "Hang on, I've got to introduce you to someone. I'll conference them in, hang on." (Jonathon Tinn clients know what I'm talking about here)

You watched a Vin Diesel movie and suddenly had the urge to buy audio equipment. (JTinn clients will understand this too)

You have more invested in records and cds than your retirement accounts.

You ever wondered if you should paint your interior walls with textured paint for added diffusion.
You have your entire LP and CD list downloaded to your palm pilot and take it with you shopping so you won't buy any more duplicates. (guilty)
