Does anyone else expand the word 'fidelity' in their head when they read '-fi' in these post names? Pen-fidelity, car-fidelity, coin-fidelity don't make much sense to me.

The original term doesn't even apply to the prefix of head-... head fidelity? Faithful to the original head? Only true with binaural, innit?

It's like every scandal becoming something-gate. ugh.

LOL It's a curious phenomenon that a lot of popular forums have. E.g. Gaming-age adds -age to everything.

I think that this means that the mentioned group is in some way related to Head-fi, instead of thinking that is relative to fidelity...
