Audiophole= Appreciate music and respect performers of music
so, the following is a true requirement in my opinion
1. No downloading: that is no rip and copy from others. Purchasing high quality music online ,sharing yeah with your friends who actually has a retail copy of the music, borrow stored music from public and rip it, and any other legally redistribution of music is not limited by this clause.
This is to ensure the music listen to is compressed in it's original form, instead of some format which damage the music
( yeah MP3 folks, I am talking to you. Do you realize the string guy disappear in a giant synphony? when I convert my friend's performance into MP3, he disappear. That is how I find out )
2. Accept all music
People might not like Rap, Rock, Classica, Instrument only, etc...
and you do not have to listen to the either. Yet you have to accept them
Accept that even your sister blows her piano performance, it is still music
Accpet that even if all Rapper do is have a mediocore mic, bad enviornment, and crappy digital-generate music, it is still music
People can have their opinion, and you can deny that opinion and/or point out the flaws in that opinion
yet you cannot deny the fact that it is an opinion, witht the exception of logical fallacy and/or false evidence of support
please refer to
this , the recent Snyder v. Phelps decision Supreme Court made
3. Bring out the most potential of the rig, unless the next purchase is your last purchase
I purchase $500 amps for my ATH ES7, yeah, I really squeeze out the last bit of ES7, and then I move on
that is how I do it: Squeeze out every bit of potential of my gears. And I love it
some people plug HD650 straight into computer headphone jack
If they are having fun, I will not mind. Except the fact that this conflicts with the 1st clause: respect performers
If there are 100 performers, and when you listen to it, you think there is only 99, then you are stepping on that 1 performer's face
For that he work so hard, and yet you did not give a ____ about it
4. ENJOY WITH YOUR HEART
if you are not truly appreciate music, what is the point of doing all 3 things above? might as well pick up your instrument or open garage band and start compose your own.
