audiophile as a strawman

It took me along time to make sense of the hows and why of how I need to go about buying audio equipment. Seems to me many buyers never really find that handle and it probably is best for them to resize and/or downsize to easier to assemble systems.

Granted the market for audio equipment is quite rich and saturated for a wide variety of tastes and applications.

These days my wife and I are as particular when it comes to buying furniture, appliances, pets, etc. as I have learned to be when it comes to buying audio equipment.

The generic market place can be pretty good and satisfying for the majority of shoppers. Those who want, or need to, usually can find niche or speciality markets for whatever it is they want.

However going into any niche doesn't always mean things are "better", though it might. More often it just means things are more specialized for particular tastes.
