It's like anything else people obsess over--food, wine, cars, health, exercise, drugs, guns, etc.
The problem isn't the obsession--you do you, glad you have a hobby--the problem is they won't shut the fuck up about it, and the air of superiority. Go geek out at your audiophile conventions, which I assume is a thing. Control yourself around we normies. Or don't, I guess, and be annoying.
It's about the money. I enjoy having a good hifi chain. It costed me a day of wage, it's second hand. Then you have those shops selling stuff that are like a month wage, a few thousands dollars. You buy those to show you have more money than others
You do you and I'll do me and we won't do each other ... Probably.
