Guys don't even like to use the term audiophile. I believe "music appreciator" is what's in vogue. Can't blame them since most audiophiles look like old dudes with grey hair, big bellies, and Hawaii shirts. Some of the more advanced audiophiles are so old that they can barely walk. At least this was my experience at T.H.E. SHOW.
Lots of self-proclaimed audiophiles that I've met have some common traits. They're easy to get onto the hype train/FOTM. They brag about their new equipment for a month or two then whine about alas there is no perfect equipment in the audiophlia, they have to make another purchase. They seem to buy myths and snake oils a lot (i.e. claiming they can 100% distinguish between flac and 320 mp3). It appears to me that they're not enjoying music, thus actually disqualifying them from being audiophile.

I always read "audiophile" as hilariously sexual in my head, like a bunch of old dudes talking about "The curves on that sine wave" God, this DAC performs so well at -90db. Look at the curves.
HA. Look how little the wiggle is in my square wave baby. This amp is the best.
