I don't consider myself an audiophile, but I do play one on Saabnet..
Actually, I work at Magnolia Hi-Fi, where some audiophiles are reported to have shopped or worked..
Anyhow, I don't strive for the best image or soundstage or for my midrange to be 'liquid' or the treble to have 'air', all of which are why I don't consider myself an audiophile. In my systems (home and car) I strive for low distortion, smooth frequency response, and good power handling. At home I add several more things, but those are the key in the car, for me.
To achieve that, I use only outboard amplification, use high quality woofers and tweeters with my own crossovers of very high quality (such as you would find in multi-kilobuck home systems, and decent size wire all around. Nothing exotic mind you. Well I could go on an on, but time to get back from lunch... may write more later if there is interest. :)
In the meantime, check out my website:
Coming up in the next few weeks: A DTS/Circle Surround decoder and probably a DVD player.
