I generally agree with what was said, but I do have a couple of comments:

""The audio press is generally populated by middle aged (plus) white males. It is what it is, I just think a more diverse spread would be interesting to get different points of view.""

There's really nothing new under the sun and just about every viewpoint imaginable has already been postulated by those middle-aged white males in the audio press, so I'm not really understanding what new/different point of view that someone who isn't white or male or middle-aged would bring to the table.

""Bad Things Audiophiles have brought upon us:
3) Children deprived of college tuition money.
4) Wives with no vacations.""

3) Do you have personal knowledge of some children (plural) that were deprived of college tuition money because of their parent(s) participation in the audio hobby? Or are you just making that up to be cute?
And of my friends that went to college, the one's that seem to feel the most fulfilled over their educations are the one's that worked their way through school, so should college tuition money be considered an entitlement or right that every child deserves?

4) Do you have personal knowledge of some wives that were deprived of vacations because of their husband's devotion to the audio hobby, or are you just making that up?
