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.

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

They just spend a shitload of money and jerk off to flacs at imperceptible frequencies.

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.
