The philosophy of "higher fidelity" in audiophilia is B.S.

Fidelity to what? This so called philosophy is more of a religion with two waring cults. Both are full of it. The idea of fidelity in audio is a joke. I ask again, fidelity to what? Whatever answer you give I can completely deconstruct and destroy be it the subjectivist nonsense, fidelity to the absolute sound or objectivist nonsense, fidelity to the source signal/master recording. Both ideas are B.S.
