I can say I'm open to everything. Chances are, I will find a way to appreciate it even if it's something I won't reach for everyday. For example, country is still the one genre I have the hardest time getting into, but I definitely have a handful of country albums that I think are pure classics.

Personally, I think this is what separates an audiophile from - say - a metalhead or hipster. Those labels apply to people who like a particular type of music and close themselves off to others (exceptions exist, but this is true for the most part). I pride myself in being an audiophile and if I find a style of music I've never heard before, I will most definitely give it a chance.
