Has audiophilia changed your music taste?

Me neither-hasn't made the slightest bit of difference to the music I listen to.
I don't even know how it could unless you were more interested in the recording quality than the actual music.

I don't think I'm kidding myself at all.
I'm not even sure as many point out how you can split the difference between your own tastes developing and a developing system.
I lot of what is described as Audiophile music puts me to sleep-Partrica Barber,Diana Krall etc. and even to a lesser extent Norah Jones-the free CD's given away occassionally with UK HI-FI mags just seem to represent a bland mixture of music for people who have descended into a safe listening zone.
Of course I listen to light music and would prefer it if everything was recorded decent.
Everybody has their own thing and nobody can be totally oblivious to information having some influence on them.
Even when I read the music reviews in the Hi-fi mags I've nearly always either got the releases I want or have read about the others.....
As a teenager I bought the music weeklies to learn and read about music,as an adult (lol) I buy at least 4 music monthly magazines a month-the reproduction is second to me and I would rather go back to a £300 mini-system than to stop discovering and buying new music.

Cdc I don't think any system can make all music sound good.
A point many Audiophiles seem to miss that even a crappy system can distinguish between "good" and "bad" productions-I've been noticing since I had the cheapest system as a teenager how music has been recorded.
Of course before everybody jumps on me I think most of us pursue great audio reproduction because it enhances the listening experience.
Your stereo cannot change what you listen to only you can.
Some people persue the hobby for different reasons as this thread indicates and that's fine.
Isn't one of the greatest aspects of a great upgrade in your system going through your collection again?
When I do this I never think I must rush out and get some better recorded music.
But sure some people have real problems with how badly they perceive music to be recorded.............
I'm not saying badly recorded music isn't a problem,it can be but I simply don't approach music this way a great album badly recorded is still a great album.
Nothing's perfect.
