If more audiophiles actually learned how to DIY, and I don't just mean rolling tubes and op amps, and swapping in boutique caps, but actually learned how to build and design amps/DACs/speakers from the ground up, well, there would be a lot less audiophiles. The problem with audiophiles is, contrary to the comment made earlier, that they really *are idiots* when it comes to electronics. Without having built or designed the components themselves, they are just tilting at windmills, and listening to whoever "appears" to have more knowledge. The best money I have ever spent on audio - well, with the lone exception of my Squeezey - is on figuring out how to build the stuff myself.
