Most Audiophiles by State


My wife was asking me this question. I thought it would probably be California.

Anyone know how we can get actual data? Thoughts?
I'm sure the magazines have a really good idea..

Okay, so far the results seem a little skewed:

California - 1
Pennsylvania - 1
Alabama - 1 (I am inferring that is where Mapman is from)
Texas - 1
Edmonton, (Alberta, Canada) - 1
Mississippi - 3

So apparently, Mississippi is the hub of all things Audiophile!
(Who'd a thunk that?!) ;-)
Well, I certainly know that there are a lot of audiophiles here in California, (including myself). I know there are a lot in New York too, which is understandable. (Both are high population centers.)

And, Colorado has more than its fair share too. Possibly (probably?) because of the large number of audiophile manufacturers located there.

Interesting question, and I am interested in the results of your research.
John,

Thanks for the advice, but I had that one figured out, (been there, done that!), which is why I did not respond to the invitation.

But, since you obviously like them thar Mississipians, and since I just happen to know where you live, I have graciously forwarded your home address to them. All twelve of them should be arriving at your house by the time you read this. (They would have taken the bus, but they managed to all fit in one of their pickup trucks - heck, they still had room for hog. (You do like hogs, right?!)

;-)

PS Hey Dick, we're just pulling your leg, and no offense intended. Besides, you are better off in Mississippi, and you wouldn't like it here in California, since the tax rates are utterly ridiculous. (Our sales tax is 9.5%, income tax is one of the highest in the nation, and our property tax (due to the high property values), is way up there too. And, even though the idiots in power have more tax money than any other state, they still have managed to spend every last cent, and then some. California is expected to declare bankrupcy within the next year or two, unless they, (and I can't believe I am saying this), raise taxes even more! On the bright side, they make lots of money off the gas tax, since our gas is $2.90 a gallon, versus your $2.40 a gallon. (See, it all works out!) :-(
