An Audiophile is Anyone Who Loves Audio Regardless of Monetary Status. Agree?

One group should not be allowed to monopolize the term above another as their own status symbol. you i and anyone else who likes audio can be considered an audiophile regardless of the size of your bank account.

brett,

Well unless you tell me what this work is I cant judge and you will not get any props. Pretty tall order making the world a better place, I find it strange that you would feel the need to share that with us. I usually find those that make the greatest impact tend to not share this with others. Hubris is a pretty nasty thing.

Rest assured, beyond this chat and this site, I have added some entertainment to your life. I share because I’ve worked hard for what I have and I am proud of it. Working for what you have was my point. And i have worked hard at assembling a reasonable audiophile setup. 

I have little respect for those who are not inclusive, especially in respects to something as ultimately unimportant as a pursuit for quality audio reproduction. Something that seems pretty common on this site and others.  Wealth and elitism is clearly evident in this pursuit. And those people are why this world is coming apart.

brettmcee,


Don't take jsautter's comments as an attack. They do not seem to be. They are more like some kind of a guidance.


It is good to be proud of your work and you should be. However, once you start flaunting it around, it becomes a little slippery. It becomes about who is a bigger boy. And the person on the other side of your computer screen, the one to whose life you have added some entertainment, might have added some years to your life. Then it becomes a joke and you do not want to feel like your work is less valuable. Stay away from bragging about it.


Other things are fine, they are your opinions regardless of who agrees or disagrees with you.
