Did you read what he said sox? "Kids my ago don't even listen to music" there goes your theory on young people being audiophiles.

... Opinions are like bottoms, everyone has one.
I really couldn't care less what a pessimistic old douche like you says.
There has never been so much affordable high-end audio equipment so readily available from all over the world than there is now.
I have late teen and twenty something kids, they are all into audio and so are their friends.... maybe not as fanatical as us goomers on this site but the passion is there. Your continued broad-brush pessimism is banal and boorish.
Is what my kids and their friends do representative of the demographic? No, but it never was. I repeat, it never was. High-end audio was always a niche and the majority of people have never been into it. Maybe the percentage of people who are interested high-end audio is lower now but it is far from dead, no matter how many times you espouse its demise.

Sox, I don't care if they are giving it away for free. Most young people don't care about it. Why do you have such a hard time with the truth. Some of you baby boomers are in such denial. I'm not telling you to abandon your love for audio. All I'm saying is the kids growing up in 2014 don't give a rat's ass about it.
.... They never did!
Read my post again then take a valium.

the thing about headphones is really true. More and more, people listen to music with headphones.
I know that the headphones market as exploded, as well as headphones amps.
I personally have grown up listening critically to musiuc on eahdphones, never on speakers until I found out how good a good system can be. But I still listen every night to my ehadphoens system because well, you hear better with headphoens unless you can crank the stereo.
Ive talked to Thorsten loesch about that, and yes audiophiles are using headphones more and more, the young audiophiles...
peace and love
