Are audiophile just mentally ill people?
Most. But some are just rich guys who want another form of elitism to subtly brag about to anyone who will listen.

Yeah, some are high-functioning ASD (audiophile spectrum disorder)
Lots of them are just audiospergers though.
Most definitely.

The simple fact he looks like my old professor is mildly discerning.
Is he suffering from joy or pain? Can't tell
I'm not an audiophile but I notice a difference between a few headphones in the 30~60 bucks range
Also I will burn your house down if you give me a pair of headphones that aren't comfortable and need to be taken down every 15 minutes
Right now I'm using the sennheiser HD419 and I definitely felt better with the takstar HI2050 until the cord broke

I would argue this. Or hipsters. Or pretentious fedora tippers.
Those are the only three categories.

Holy lel. I have cried from one music experience in my life and that was seeing a philharmonic orchestra perform a song I have forgotten the name of. I was also suffering from depression and on two different mind-fuck pills so who knows.

Audiopedophiles are mentally ill, senile old men who can't hear more than 14KHz meaning all that gimmicky trash they buy is worthless.

I cornered one into finally admitting that the recorded sound was vastly inferior to a concert hall sound.
But he still listened to his "disks" on his "hi-fi" rather than going to a live performance.
When hi-fi came in it was depricated because most people preferred the mellow tones of the radio for their music.
