Default Re: Just bought a new Ipod.

My dad subscribes to Audiophile magazine and has a jillion dollar set of speakers. I have had a lot of ear training as a classical and jazz musician so I can hear a significant difference between that system and your $300 set of speakers from Best Buy. But I still cannot tell the difference between a performance of Brahms' 4th on a top-notch system that costs a jillion dollars and a 2nd-tier system that costs half a jillion dollars that most audophiles wouldn't be caught dead listening to.

In sum, audiophiles are annoying.

Very well put! I'd rather spend the extra money on hookers and blow.
