Hi! I am currently a graphic design student in college and was assigned a project to create a brand that is dedicated to Audiophiles! I really loved looking through this subreddit and learning about this community I did not know existed.

For this project, can you guys give me some challenges that audiophiles face? I noticed that a lot of setups can be expensive! so stuff like that would be helpful. And what are some needs? What are some things that you guys would benefit from?

Also, you can just tell me about yourself! I would love to know. I have never heard of or met an “audiophile” before and would love to know more about the interest. Tell me anything!

    There is a market for loudspeakers but do not forget headphones, and I’m not talking about Airpods and Beats™…

    My audiophile journey began with some Audio Technica MSR7 headphones. Then I found out that we could amp headphones, and that there were different kinds of driver technologies, many many different sound signatures etc…

    I evolved and got myself some high end planar magnetic headphones (MSRP: $1000+) and a fitting headphone amp. I enjoyed this a lot… then wanted to have the power and the kick of a loud system… and realized that the investment I had made for my headphone setup was nothing compared to the money pit that is a loud system. Now I’m here broke af but in a position to enjoy music like never before. #noregret
