Are you an audiophile?

Partly!
I do not use Mp3's less than 192kbps, first of all. Secondly if there's this CD i really like, I rip it in WAV to get everything out of it

Also, I've gone from using some random MP3-Player under $99 to now investing $300 in a player and headphones. I'm on my way!

(Is this thead old? It says I've already voted no in this poll)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I don't think it's that hard to tell the difference from a 128kbps and a 256kbps, although I heard we normally can't hear the difference between 256kbps and lossless/cd.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I know I prefer VBR on my MP3-player at least
Too bad it doesn't play FLAC. I could rip WAV's, but they take as much space as an Xbox.

wut~
there is an obvious lack of richness and blooming in 128kbps, something I can certainly tell the difference from side by side with a 256kbps+/VBR.
