@zackreuter6344: Hey, where's them creepy AI babes? Seems like they are missing a great opportunity here. I would not expect Audio Phil to lower himself to participating in a discussion of an ordinary consumer grade brand, though it would be interesting if he did.

@gerhardkappelt7219: Different approach: Who invented the combination of 'audio' and 'phil(e)'? Since this is definitely not an 'ancient' word, someone had to 'invent' it...

@ianjohnhorwood2605: onkyo is what i would call today more on the expensive budget quality side 🤣 , so no , not one would call anyway highest end quality in any particular way , in what you would think the highest quality would be . By the way , you are extremely really funny , if someone wants a real laugh , yep , they should come and have a listen to you , rather than listen to the audiophile idiots from absolute sound , and other idiots like them etc 🤣 🤣 🤣 .
@ShirleyMarquezDulcey: There are certainly things that aren't stylus brushes that qualify as audiophile and can be bought for 300 quid. Most notably, many excellent headphones can be had for that price, and they offer a taste of the high end listening experience for fairly small amounts of money. Yes, you could also spend 3,000 or 30,000, and hopefully that would give you something that is even better, but it's not necessary.

@Arfonfree: I think Onkyo has a legitimate trademark. The term "audiophile" seems to be meaningless in itself.apparantly it means whatever the person using it wants it to mean. Therefore it can hardly be called descriptive.
@IndigoDavei: Bit pedantic, but I would suggest that the word 'audiophile' describes a person, not a thing. I really don't think that audio kit, however good it might be, does a lot of 'philing'! Having said that, maybe the devolpment of AI will eventually lead to machine sentience; then a hi-fi system may become a genuine audiophile, able to do all the 'philing' it desires, and we won't be needed at all. (Maybe Onkyo will even earn that trademark???) Anyway, once future generations can afford their preferred kit, maybe they won't have to worry about no longer being able to hear much above 12 KHz - the machine will do it itself.

@Mark-tp2mz: A new dictionary meaning, Audiophile (proper noun) - a person who seeks to impress others, or compensate for personal unseen deficiencies, to elevate themselves, by spending stupendous amounts of money or claim scientifically unverifiable sound quality increases, to impress others by deception. Comp. A person who would have vigorously claimed that Emperor was indeed wearing clothes, it's just that your eyes are not resolving correctly
@Dave_Outside: Of course, this is primarily about trademark. However, there are a lot of self proclaimed audiophiles on YouTube. I really only like to listen people that have actual training and music. Maybe they have been a musician maybe they have been a sound engineer. Maybe they have worked for an equipment company as an engineer. And I typically don’t listen to older people when they try to make assessments of sound quality because their hearing has degraded. Whether they like it or not. Just like mine has. One reason that Tyll stopped doing headphone reviews.
@stevelane5885: So the irony is that if Onkyo can only use the term “Audiophile” if it isn’t because if it was it would be descriptive so the trade mark would not be aprovable !
@jazzandcocktails7: In the 1980s, Onkyo made some of the best equipment around under the Grand Integra sub-brand. That equipment was truly "audiophile." If you have access to the Absolute Sound, you can check reviews.

@ricardoperoni901: An “audiophile” is actually a male in his 60,s who like red wine, cheese, and smells ever so slightly of wee. They often congregate in packs at trade shows and salivate over power cables as thick as a child’s arm contemplating its veil lifting potential. So if Onkyo want to associate themselves with that then good luck to them. So it’s basically a person who obsesses over the sound quality of hifi equipment not a component or a standard that can be met. 🤔Richy.
@simplestuffmatters: Love the rant. Hence, good thing Onkyo owns that trademark.
I see ptoducts like the Taiko Audio Extreme Server (28K for a PC? - WTF?). Looks neater than average HW, but is it value fo rmoney? Hardly. That is what truly defines and enthusiast: Things matter to them that billions of others couldn't care less about and they WANT to spend money for it.
Great channel - keep up the good work.
@tristandesade8635: I agree. I also think that in general the whole trademark plot has gone too far.
@dead_art: The fact that this word "audiophile" was not considered descriptive at the moment it was patented means that it was not in use or at least it was not used widely enough to be known as a common name, so it was treated as a proper name as lots of latin/greek words and their derivatives used for trademarks. Probably, nowadays this term is known and used thanks to Onkyo. So, on one hand we've got a brightly memetic and more or less descriptive linguistic unit, attribution of which to the public domain by now would likely be a fair thing. On the other hand, this linguistic unit entirely took off from this trademark. So, only time will tell this heaven from hell…

@jimhines5145: Audiophile is such a misused term, even if it is patented. Who is to say their Pioneer SX1980 is an audiophile receiver. It is. We know that from the specs of it. But on the other hand, why does a $500 Onkyo sound just as good, or nearly as good as that awesome (and very expensive) vintage equipment? Well, Audiophile is not necessarily in the playback, but more in the original recordings. An Audiophile receiver is NOT going to make a crap recording sound any better. It's a pig with lipstick. Most self proclaimed audiophiles are in their mid 50s plus. We (yes, me included) cannot usually even hear the subtle differences. Audiophile is complete rubbish and as you said, it is all based on a single patent (haha). Same as diamond engagement rings. Totally invented to increase sales.

@Douglas_Blake_579 replies to @mrdanger4851: @@mrdanger4851
Stop and think about it ... the sound you hear is from a recorded source, as you say, what the sound engineers want you to hear. But that has literally nothing to do with your equipment. The same recording will sound the same on 50 different stereos... and there's nothing we can do about that.
The electronic engineers designing the hardware are completely aware of that and seek to make their equipment as clear and transparent as possible, so the music sets the stage, not your amplifier.
Subjectivity fails the minute we realise that we live a shared experience in a reality that is, in fact, governed by physical laws. Your experience, like it or not, is shared by others.

@stevengagnon4777: Audiophile, noun: a person who is enthusiastic about high-fidelity sound reproduction...Merriam Webster
a person who is very interested in and enthusiastic about equipment for playing recorded sound, and it's quality...Cambridge
So by definition an audiophile is a person...not a piece of equipment! Therefore the word "audiophile" does not have an indication of what " quality " a piece of equipment has because it is a noun , not an adjective. One will need other words to properly describe the quality of the sound msde by the equipment whether it's an entire system or a particular piece of the system.
Now for the poeple who think the word "audiophile " is meaningless that would be a mistake on thier part....just like poeple words do have a meaning and just because they are abused....it does not make them meaningless . The fabric of our society is built upon the WORD so as a society we need to keep words meaningful or just like many societies of the past our society will become a heap of dust. Take the once great city of Babylon for example...it's a desolate heap where the wild canines roam.
The WORD has always existed and is with us.
@stevengagnon4777 replies to @stevengagnon4777: As a side note I believe this is why Onkio will never sue as a plaintiff in court because a defendif will always have the case dismissed and be ordered to pay for the court costs by a judge presiding over the case rather quickly and a defendif would probably win suing for damages. Since the noun "audiophile " had well established and excepted definition by the time Onkyo applied for the trademark....

@Douglas_Blake_579: About audiophiles and their shopping habits ...
My uncle used to own a parts supply, dealing mostly with industrial electronics.
From time to time he would get someone at the counter demanding 'Audiophile Quality" parts for some project or another.
He would then calmly go in the back and pull the parts from the regular bins, put them in small bags stamped a red "A", take that back to the counter and charge some ludicrous price for the parts.
One day I'm helping out and there's a huge row at the counter. This guy is reaming my uncle for trying to rip him off. "I don't want the regular parts. I want the audiophile ones!" So, rather exasperated my uncle went into the warehouse put them in the red-A bags came back out and overcharged the guy by about 10 times.
Well he wasn't done ... "Don't you ever try to rip me off like that again!" and off he goes.
Later I challenged him about the practice. He explained that the "audiophiles" were prone to get angry if the parts aren't super expensive, so for the relatively small amount of trade they represented he just took a policy of "red-A" parts and overcharging them. He explained that he tried to sell at the regular prices and they complained about it.
But you see, the problem is that there is no such thing as "audiophile quality" parts anywhere in the electronics industry. Parts are manufactured, then sorted into either Consumer, Commercial, Military or Aerospace grades, based on tolerances and batch testing. Yes there are parts that are made for audio applications... but they are graded as Consumer, Commercial, Military or Aerospace, just like everything else.
Turns out my uncle wasn't a thief ... the audiophiles insisted on ripping themselves off!
