  Audiophile @ ILikeJam
Were it not for a Mr Don Mainfort I would still be in the dark about this incredible audiophile development.
I am very much ashamed to say that my own speakers are bi-wired and spiked onto concrete plinths, my PC's sound card is hooked up to a 20 bit DAC/ADC, and years ago I could be found polishing the mains plug pins on my amplifier with Brasso.
If you'd like to see some of the claims made by audiophiles about their wondrous wares debunked, have a look at Audioholics Education.

 M Audio Audiophile USB
With the increase in popularity of 'slotless' computers, such as laptops and iMacs, several manufacturers of traditional soundcards and audio interfaces are extending their ranges to include external units connected by USB or Firewire.
Ticking the box for the S/PDIF input activates it and allows the Audiophile USB to clock to the incoming digital signal, but problems will arise if this box is ticked when no digital source is connected as the unit will be in external clock mode with no clock signal to lock to.
Despite its limitations, most of which are concessions to the bandwidth of USB, the Audiophile USB is ideal for simple audio applications where you only need limited I/O and you are working at sample rates up to 48kHz.

 M Audio Audiophile 192
M Audio's Audiophile 192 provides great sound quality for the price, as well as stable and versatile drivers, but would offer even better value for money if its monitor outputs were more flexible.
Within audio applications the Audiophile 192 offers Analog 1/2 In and Out and S/PDIF 1/2 In and Out as options, and since on this model there's an additional dedicated Analog Output for monitoring, the familiar M Audio Delta Control Panel is even easier to use than normal.
Overall the Audiophile 192 is a very capable and reliable performer with excellent audio quality for the price, and it goes significantly beyond its 2496 predecessor in all departments.

 Welcome to Chesky Records: The Premiere Audiophile Record Label
This guy (99.999% of audiophiles are men) owns a very good system that's taken years to put together; obscene amounts of cash to maintain; and the truth is, it's his mistress.
You win some...Some audiophiles attempt to involve their spouses: "Honey, listen to how much better this new $2K DAC resolves Linda Ronstadt's voice!"; she may nod in faint approval, or run out of the room sobbing.
Every audiophile is the designer of his own system; from the various bits and pieces, step by step, each of us builds our own masterpiece.

 eBay Guides - Collecting Vintage Audiophile LP Record Albums
Yet another breed of audiophile collector insists that nothing pressed before the late 1970s is of collectible quality, and they collect only LPs of the late 70s and 80s (as a side note, almost all collectors agree that anything pressed in the early to mid 1970s is of poor sound quality).
Keep in mind, too, that there may be recordings which were originally pressed in the audiophile era, but which then continued to be sold out and re-pressed and re-released over and over again until outside the dates of the audiophile era.
Many in the audiophile collector community consider even the white dog label LPs to be too late to be collectible, although I personally disagree.

 Audiophile Measurement Mysteries » Home Theater, Anime, Geek Gadgets for the whole family
As an audiophile, you have to ask yourself if the wood enclosure gives the DAC a different sonic character than aluminum.
Falsely transferring visual asthetics to sonic ones you could guess that the jewelry box sounds warmer, fuller with lots of treble “sparkle”; the normal aluminum case is cold and hard and analytical.

And the statement "mp4 and audiophile are incompatible" has no more truth than "MP3 and..", particularly when either codec is used at those bitrates which have been determined to be 'transparent' to an overwhelming majority of listeners in blind listening tests.
Of course, 'audiophile quality' means 'transparent' to me, not $15K interconnects and tin-hats - and whether or not someone considers themself an audiophile, if they can't discern a ~190kbs AAC file from its lossless counterpart, I don't see how they could consider one file inferior to the other.
As for the 'audiophile' qualities of compressed formats: I've been buying a lot more CDs and CD-Rs of late (now about 40% of my spending on music, which used to be close to 100% on vinyl) and the plunge in quality when ripping to MP3 or AAC has been pretty shocking.

 M-AUDIO FIREWIRE AUDIOPHILE
It is recommended to use the Audiophile as a self-powered device only (that is, do not use the FireWire bus as the power source for a string of other devices, such as an external hard drive).
Because the FireWire Audiophile has its own dedicated headphone-level control on the front panel, the headphone output is not selectable in the control panel.
