A few months back an offhanded comment - "Well, the Senn MX500 certainly can't be considered audiophile" - made me wonder where hobbyist or enthusiast ends and where audiophile begins. The current "Name the Audiophile headphones you hate" thread has made me wonder again. It occurs to me that the closest I probably have to what could be considered an audiophile phone is the Grado SR80 and I bet even that falls short in some opinions.
My sources are almost always an MP3 player or a portable CD player so I never felt the need to spend more than I have on a nicer set of cans. I enjoy what I have very much but the bug bites me every now and then, just not an expensive bug.
Where do you draw the line?
