Interesting question! It is a hobby that you have to seek out ,,its not a high profile hobby,,,you dont see billboards for high end products,or much advertising in newspapers ,shopping guides,,Its not a hobby that draws girls like classic cars or motorcycles,Ive been interested in the feeling I get when I hear a good sounding system,or good live music ,or just cool sounds from nature ever since I can remember,,when I was a kid a good song on a transistor radio could put me on cloud 9,,ive always had a thing for good sound !When I discovered that certain gear made sound,,,sound better,I was drawn to that gear as well!I am a rarity among people I know in that respect.
are audiophiles different than non audiophiles ?
i have been curious as to what determines one's interest in equipment, sound and music.
is it some personality factor, just a matter of choice of hobby or is their something else?
any ideas?
i think the answer to this question explains why some have no interest in listening to a high quality stereo system, when invited for a social occasion, as was the subject of "disappointing evening".
