term coined by A. Colin Flood, writing for EnjoyTheMusic.com, to describe hobbyists who fiddle with their home music systems.
" An audiophile is not merely someone that Dictionary.com says has "ardent interest in stereo or high-fidelity sound reproduction." An audiophile is someone who wants to do something about the flaws and deficiencies in their home entertainment system, whether it is about the music or the movies.
A tweaking audiophile is someone who wants to make some or all of those improvements themselves. (This term derives from a caustic description applied to myself. As in the time when an annoyed salesman said, "what are you anyway, some sort of xxxing audiophile?" His expletive evolved in print to "frigging," which lead to "freaking" and then to "tweaking." And, there you have it. Lemonade, from lemons.)"

Get the tecking mug.usually when you see a comment like that using the colloquial (not formal English) contraction " 'er ", it is a substitute for the word "her".
In this usage, "her" isn't really referring to anything specific. Again, it is a colloquial expression which, in a very technical explanation, which personifies "Life" (or a situation one has run into in life) as a female and so "time for taking 'er easy" means time to step back and observe, time to relax a little about whatever the issue is...time for taking 'er (her or it--life) easy."
