All the musicians I know and have known are/were indifferent to audiophile notions of "high fidelity." They inhabit the world of actual music, not our world of sound reproduction. A different realm. Audiophiles encourage one another to "enjoy the music!," but that's delusional. All we have are records and tapes and discs and and digital simulacra from storage media involving dozens of transductions and no musical instrument in sight. A bottomless hobby, but not music. I know because they told me so.
What stereo equipment do respected musicians listen to?
With all the debate on this piece of equipment is better than that, it got me to thinking… What setup do well respected musicians have, e.g. amps, speakers, etc. What does Wynton Marsalis listen to, for example? Just curious and thought it might be a fun topic.
