General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

But do all "audiophiles" necessarily care about "fidelity"?

Seems like a good many prefer euphonia -- high 2HD, low output tube amplification, speakers with resonant boxes and gross inaccuracies in the frequency and phase domains, phono cartridges with rolled off HF response, highly capacitive cables, dubious tweaks, etc. Some of these are openly contemptuous of measurements, engineering, or any pursuit of "accuracy" whatsoever.

There are definitely two (or more) schools of thought under the general umbrella of "audiophilia."
