From 3:06 min on he is showing us the exact 4 criteria you have to fit in if you want to be accepted as an audiophile:

I really LMAO

1. 3:06 min The specific music genres
2. 4:46 min The 85% criteria
3. 5:31 min Audio is not a hobby - you can’t be satisfied with your system Listening to music should not be truly enjoyable!
4. 6:33 min Everyone else in the world who does not following the first three audiophile Stepps should be regarded as less than human to you

Man, that was goofed. Breakdown...
  • Audiophile is a modern made-up word (originated in 1951 in -- you guessed it, our favorite source -- a magazine article).
  • Audiophile is a hybrid word (not portmanteau) formed from...
    • audire, a Latin noun meaning 'sound' (or alternatively a Latin verb meaning 'to hear')
    • phil, which is a Greek verb meaning 'to love'
  • So the made-up word audiophile simply means to love sound or to hear. That's it.
Any meaning beyond that?? Welcome to the world of subjectivity...
