Will Technology Kill the Audiophile Hobby?

At least power conditioners will be obsolete when
electromagnetism is taken advantage of.

Audiophiles will never cease to exist regardless the technology nor price. There will always be someone somewhere listening to what he has access to. What scares me are the amount of hands on electronic gurus still around. You know what I’m talikn about, the one that still has his soldering iron :) that poor bastid...*laffs

Yes High End audio will be dead by next week for sure.

Too bad.   It's barely got a pulse and hanging on by a thread already while the rest of the music loving world continues to close the gap on sound quality and widen the gap on cost.  Maybe human hearing will continue to evolve and improve as well and help keep raising the bar.

So I guess now is the time to buy those Audio Systems Soundmaster Mark VI loudspeakers with the Icepick tweeters,  Nutcrusher 2000 woofers, and tube-driven crossovers.    Won't be here much longer evidently.
