[SEE BELOW FOR TIMESTAMPS]This video started out as personal project to just catalog the a/v gear I currently have in my various systems. In the process, I began to reflect on how I became an "audiophile" and the benefits and drawbacks of this lifestyle. The result is a mixture of thought and footage chronicling my gear and the hobby itself, interspersed with some tips on getting into the hobby. I think I made this for a future version of myself, but others may find it interesting.
