Remember when audiophile retards though that the SCPH-1001 PlayStation had some kind of high quality audio, but it turned out that it was just a bog standard DAC? I do.

I remember they had trash readers which were much more prone to dying compared to the later models.

Def not bog standard, it had a really good DAC on the original, as did many 90s Sony cd players. I have one and it sounds great, but I doubt it's possible to hear difference Vs a regular Sony CD hifi

You know what's utterly hilarious about audiophiles?
Most of them are old dudes, who have already lost 50% of their hearing fidelity through age. It's like when your 60yo boomer uncle with myopia cares about 4K and HDR.

Do they realize most of the music they listen to is recorded with pretty standard equipment with none of their fancy higher than human hearing sample rates or perfectly isolated equipment? Even assuming they can hear it (they can’t), you can’t play back sound quality that didn’t exist during recording.

And also it's not even just like some boomer with poor eyesight caring about 4K while sitting from his couch 15 feet away. It's like all that but also the 4K TV is just displaying upscaled standard def 480i content anyway.

Lol, you don’t even follow a strict definition of what classifies as boomer. You’d call a 52 year old a boomer. That cliche of the old guy who takes audio way too seriously is largely comprised of old metal heads who came of age in late 60s, 70s, and early 80s. AKA Gen X.

Sorry you can’t do math, but that means someone born in 1967. I.e., a kid in the 60s and 70s. But you know, I’m not at all surprised that you’d call me salty. It’s such an effective coping mechanism when you’ve got shit for brains and can’t do basic math.

It's a small fraction of toxic zoomers that are incels in real life and live lives of pain wanting to project it, obviously best ignored. They wouldn't have the balls and especially not the competency to shit-talk an older person irl so we get this nonsense online.

>> No.5900750

Whether they’re as hostile IRL as previous generations or they relegate that anger to the online world, it’s weird how they lack self-awareness about it. I mean, I know if I was still in my teens or early 20s I wouldn’t want to be a repeat of past “maaan old people are lame” cliches. But then again, apart from some
fights with my parents I generally always had respect for my elders.

Audio fidelity is their "muh graphix/muh scanlines/muh pixel perfect". They grew up associating music with companies shill better and better audio quality in the same way we grew up with game companies shilling better and better graphical quality.
