Music Appreciation : Audiophile

 

Many people nowadays just listen to their mp3s and disregard any sort of measure of quality of 1, the recording, and 2, equipment. This means that most people will never get to experience the beauty and enjoyment of hearing music in high definition.

For those who care to learn and appreciate high definition audio, they will enter a world of deep enjoyment of quality in sound. An audiophile is a person who enjoys listening to music and does so in the best possible manner. This includes choosing the best amplifier (tube amps have richer sound), type of recordings (vinyl vs cd), cable quality, speakers...etc

Below you will find an introductory article with the topics you should begin to think about, along with videos of audiophile collections, links to audiophile resources, and the best books and actual audiophile equipment. This happens to be one of my personal favorite hobbies!

Good Luck and Have Fun!
