The perfect system for Hip Hop is probably a good 5.2 AV system. Which could be very refined in it's own context.... so excuse me for saying one type of system is more refined over another... it just depends on what you are trying to accomplish.
With Hip Hop there is no "realistic" sound stage you are trying reproduce.
Where as a 4 piece jazz quartet you can almost get an exact 3d replica of the event. Another example is the trying to get the perfect tone and decay of a piano strike. That is a very specific element of a 2 channel system to be manipulated with appropriate kit, wire etc..
If I was into Hip Hop (Pop)... the last think I would be concerned about is sound-stage and piano decays. I would be interested in clean high decibel in the bass and sub bass registers... which sounds like a AV or a tricked out car system.
