Hey everyone. I'm not altogether new to the world of audio; I've owned some decent headphones and done some reading up on audio terminology. I guess I know what sounds good in theory, but I have a hard time putting all of it into practice. I can tell if something sounds good to me, but I don't particularly know why. I wouldn't be able to tell you if the bass was bleeding into the lower mids or if the treble was too rolled off. I guess all of this is to ask: at what point did some of you more experienced guys consider yourselves "audiophiles?' How long did it take you to train your ear to identify all these subtle musical nuances? Will it come with time as I listen to more sets of cans and more diverse ones? (I have only listened to one pair of IEMs for the past year or so after all.) I would really appreciate some advice on how one actually becomes an audiophile. I would really appreciate some pointers.
