Re: Audiophoolery?
At first I thought it was expense that made an audiophoolish icon attractive. Close, but not always
And then I wondered if it was the twinkly jewellery nature of things. Again, close, but not always.
No, I think it's exclusivity that draws them in, the feeling that everyone (except their gods) are excluded from enjoying something they have. Something that elevates them to a smugness factor of at least 100 milliRobinsons. It needs to be something requiring any one of : great wealth, great luck, special friendships with gurus, or serious skills as a hunter-gatherer to obtain.
