In Reply to: Audiophile vs Music Lover --What's the Difference? posted by thetubeguy1954 on January 24, 2012 at 04:12:17:
On one side, audiophiles who aren't music lovers (that part's tiny -- why would someone be an audiophile if they didn't love music)? In the overlapping part, audio enthusiasts who love music. And on the other side, people who love music but don't much care about audio -- a fairly large group, I've found.
