Rockwell: audiophile term "just like a pedophile"


Hey guys. You should read this bigoted and ignorant caricature of audiophile stereotypes by camera reviewer Ken Rockwell. I have never seen anything like it. Just do a search under his name and the article "What is an Audiophile".

Coming from someone who spends his life detailing differences between camera lenses, is this also hypocritical?

Jafant-A very disturbing post. There is nothing funny about children being abused. Comparing an audiophile with that form of mental illness is absurd!
btw 18 through 21 are legal pediatric ages for both genders.
there are countries with earlier ages of concent as well.
There is no reason to get defensive; these are all tired old arguments, many of which are found here on Audiogon by posters who allege they are more devoted to music than the gear.

As for Mr. Rockwell, I love a guy who reeks of arrogance with respect to his own education, technical and intellectual brilliance who is nonetheless chippy about the price of luxury goods and whose career plan and business model consists of begging for money on a sloppy website.

I am going to clear my cache now before shopping at BH Photo.
There's truth in his statements. The problem is he paints with much too broad a brush. And he does so with smug arrogance which is unflattering.
