Why is there no Mid End


We are all audiopiles quote un quote who accept the term High End to describe expensive or if you must reference grade sound reproduction. Some of us freely admit that we have mid-fi equipment but never say mid end or even sub High End. Even if you were to use the fact that High End implies a limiting superlative why don't we say this is a Low End piece we use low fi (or other language that's even worse) more frequently.

Actually, a few more words... On reflection, you can define mid end as whatever is in the middle, regardless of how good the middle becomes over time. If you subscribe to this approach, the majority of equipement is always mid to low end by definition. The rub is that everyone's individual measurement scale differs so we'll likely never reach any kind of agreement on what equipment goes where.
Ozzy, my sentiments exactly, as stated earlier:

"But there really is a logical continuum -- lo-fi, mid-fi, and hi-fi. What keeps changing is what falls into the last two categories :~))"

Thanks for your support.
