You know you're an audiophile when... - Page 402  

When you only have lossless music and all your friends think it's insane....but you can hear the difference

when some of your lossless music isn't your "good" lossless music, but your "good" lossless music takes up 4 times more space.....

I like to keep my superbar perfectly empty. I don't have anything pinned to it. I'm a minimalist. The background and Android inspired dock say otherwise (and rainmeter) but everything else I like to keep clean. I do plan on moving to something really simple in the future.  The 2 clocks I sort of have no reason for.

 

In short, I keep nothing pinned to my taskbar and start menu (since it looks cleaner).

 

Oh, you guys, make sure you use the correct start button for your taskbar. They have versions for small and large taskbars and also sometimes have multiple versions for different locations of the superbar (top, bottom, right, left).

Glad to know I'm not the only one that's modified their Windows 7 themes.

can't stand the glass theme that comes with Windows 7.  I tired messing with Rainmeter but it hogs resources and I never see my desktop anyway XD

When you're talking about amplifiers in a systems controls class and them being high-fidelity and all you think are headphone amplifiers and headphones.

When you go on a diet and try to be healthy, you remind yourself "listening to some sick gear" doesnt count as a workout.....but doing that while on a treadmill is.....

I need that as a poster. Endless laughter.. :-)

Excellent example of this is which bothered the crap out of me:

Florence + The Machine's "Ceremonials" Deluxe has a track "Landscape (Demo)".  In 256k iTunes Plus vs Lossless there is a huge difference and once I noticed it I pretty much irrationally/rationally wanted to have all my music in Lossless format.

I have gone so far as to re-rip all my CD's multiple times because I forgot to include a format and screw reformatting.....That's for squares.

I love my lossless music. I make it a point to only use 320 kbps or 256 kbps mp3's when needed. Anything lower than that is only in my iTunes because it's a podcast. I keep my iTunes clean :-)

...when my family knows that I'im an audio enthusiast, and now I'm terrified that maybe they will give me beats as gifts.

I have the same fear but my parents know better than to buy me things without asking me first. Instead, I fear they will bring me a magazine ad for Beats and ask why I didnt get these over the more expensive gear I own.

...When vinyl, gift cards to the record store, or vinyl are the only acceptable gifts on your birthday....and you got no acceptable gifts this year.
