Actually the future has never been brighter!
Billions of kids now have access to really good audio and music almost for free! An Iphone, Android, Ipad, PC or Mac have relatively good sound. With a nice pair of $200 headphones it's pretty excellent, through in a USB box for another $150 and wha-la really good sound.Better then those $40 records (in today's dollars) played on a standard record player and receiver from the 1970's.
With Youtube HD, Streaming services, etc... Exposure to really great music from around the world is free and easy.
As these kids grow up, they'll want something a little better, and better, and better. Like we did.
I lent my kid my AKG 701s, never saw them back. His face lit up when I let him try my Senn HD800s, those I kept!
