I suspect my neighbor is an audiophile. What do I do?
He never talks much but late at night I see him scurrying into the house with DENON boxes visible only by the light of the moon.

If one turns out all the lights and listens, they can hear everything from Itzak Perleman to the Spanic Boys billowing from his house at all hours of the day.

Yesterday, I saw him removing a BOSE surround sound set of boxes from his van and today I can hear the soundtrack to THE WIZ wallowing out his windows.

I am really concerned and I need your advice.

When I go over there to check out his stereo, should I bring a beer?
Wine?
Other?

1. Bose?
Relax.. He's not a real audiophile, just a wannabee.

2. pull him aside and say:
Bose Blows.

No Highs? No Lows? Must be Bose!

Then take him to the nearest true high-end audio store and guide him to halfway decent speakers.

4. But if he wants
to hold your hand while listening to the Beatles, call the cops, and keep us informed. ;-)
