Audiophiles get NO respect

This is not a new observation but it still hurts. Here's an excerpt from an article in the latest GQ (Jan, p. 188) on the problem with overly loud cd mastering:

"There's a lot of stuff written about CD mastering that ventures into the realm of the audiophile, where squabbles over coaxial cables and sub pre-outs are conducted by the kind of men you suspect may never have seen a lady naked, or at least not in the flesh."

Ouch! LOL!!

Listen I have been a phile for a while . When in college I had women whose abitilies have never been equalled . I swear but as long as you had a cool stereo that was all.
Now I mam married to a screaming harpe **** monster from hell who really appreciates music.
My systems are the best ever but the---is the worst.

Have you seen some of the listening rooms on this site? Some of these aren't far removed from the "gimp basement' in Pulp Fiction. I love it when you see a $20,000 amp in a $400 a month 10x10 apartment with no furniture.

Even I'll admit, I've become the guy 'I used to make fun of'.
