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."
Excellent post. You said it. Even though the definitions say exact reproduction lovers, audiophiles love playing around with sound. The example of Set amps hit the nail on the head. And Set owners are considered the greatest audiophiles.
Happy New Year
