Audiophiles for popular music ?


Do any of you consider yourself an audiophile but listen to mainly popular music from the 70's on . Radio play music . I do and finding it hard to find gear that is pleasing to the ears on this type of music.

The stuff Best Buy carries will just not do . The three boutique stores in town really do not have systems aimed at this music. Is all hifi equipment designed for classical music ?
Brands like NAD,Adcom,Rotel are nice but being an audiophile makes me want better .

Any suggestions on gear would be appreciated

While gear matters in regard to the genre of music, you're a long long way from reaching that stage. It's only after you have received your "Doctorate of Audiophile" degree that you can begin to discuss what cartridge is best voiced for which genre of music.

What you have is fine.

What I'm saying is that it's not until you've gone off the deep end financially and otherwise can you begin to discuss such things in a way that it matters.
