Rubbish. They may have no interest in passively consuming the grossly overpriced, garish and often downright silly products of the audiophile luxury goods business but that is only one small part of audio.

Good audio? This is good audio as defined by an audiophile to mean the passive consumption of grossly overpriced, garish and often downright silly products of the current audiophile luxury goods industry? This is not what good audio means to youngsters (or oldsters that have not signed up to audiophile nonsense).

There has never been a time when good audio equipment for the home has been as cheap. On the other hand, there has probably never been a time when the mainstream marketing of audio has been as misleading.
