Audiophiles are music lovers. They're a lot like car enthusiasts.

There are many ways to express your love for cars. You might just like fine cars and buy them. Or you might get involved in a car club that has regular meetings. You might attend car shows. Maybe even present your own car in the show. Maybe race. Maybe build motors and suspensions and do chassis work. Lots of levels.

Same with audiophiles. You might just buy gear. Or maybe you build equipment from kits. Might design and build your own gear. Might go to audio shows. Might be into collecting records, tapes and/or digital media. Might present your own equipment designs at shows. Maybe get involved in measurement and comparison events. Lots of levels here too.

So to be an "audiophile" is to be someone that loves audio. There are lots of ways to do that.
