audioholic 

A person who is fixated on good home theater sound in a practical sense, without regard to snake oil products or marketing gimmicks infused with pseudo-science. Audioholics are aware of, and value, measurements when evaluating gear, though ultimately purchasing decisions are made with the ears. They differ from audiophiles in that they enjoy multi-channel surround sound and are less susceptible to ultra expensive components that "command" respect solely based on price and prestige (or a psychological desire to justify your lavish audio expenditures).

auntoholic 

The alcoholic aunt - everyone has one. Usually found listing sideways on the couch at family gatherings, trapping younger relatives with an iron grip on the arm and imparting "some things about life no one else has the balls to tell you." This species is particularly abundant around the holidays.
