You know you're an audiophile when your ears start hurting when you see your friends wearing beets by farmer dre..
When you decided to trade in a new Nokia phone because it does not play lossless formats! (The specs said it does!)
I also tried telling the difference between 320k and Lossless. 9/10 for Rock 7/9 for classical 7/10 for Jpop 5/10 for Jazz. My original hypothesis was that some genres are much more easier to tell than other genres.
For me, I could easily tell between rock pieces by listening to the impact of the drums and the bass guitar details, but I can't tell any difference between jazz pieces. Gonna make my friend try this and see his results.
You know you're an audiophile when the sound of audio clipping makes you want to set fire to an orphanage.
You know you're an audiophile when you're listening to music on your favorite headphones as you reply to a thread on Head-Fi while your new headphones are burning in beside you.
While waiting for the order confirmation email of a headphone supplier with whom you are on a first name basis...

when you go to an audio store and give more recommendations than the ppl working there (depends on store)
Lol that is so true. I was in guitar center and upsold a guy looking at the HD280 to some KRK KNS8400. Then I had my DT1350 on my neck and I was comparing some of the phones they had with their DT880 and Q701.
I ended up with not one but 3 employees around me and the lady at the counter was shopping on amazon online looking at the 990 premiums because I explained to them the difference between the pro and premium models on the beyers. Other 2 guys were auditioning my DT1350's with the amp I brought.
I asked for a commission on the upsell but no dice.
