It's true. I can enjoy music in lesser quality so long as I'm not thinking about it. Had a great night on Friday listening to Ian Creaghan of Three Amigos on Mixcloud but it was pure nostalgia and the fun of the live chat. My hi-fi is more top drawer than I care to admit, from better days, but my goodness it sounds amazing and like you say Jimmy, you hear stuff in tracks you've never noticed before and experience music on a completely different way under those conditions. However in fairness it can expose bad recordings which leads to disappointment due to the higher expectations and distraction. The worst case is when you start choosing music for the quality of the recordings rather than because it rocks or takes you places. Just go to a hi-fi show and watch half the punters missing the point in expert fashion! I don't think I could give up my system though.
