RE: Then one must ask...

"Is it necessary to buy anything more than a decent mid-fi system if one only listens to mainstream pop drek?"

This is why quality sound reproduction is no longer a point of interest in the mainstream.... The recordings are poor and overprocessed, and the consumers by and large don't see any value added to reproduce it well.

This is a sad state because this was NOT the case for mainstream consumers prior to the digital age. I miss the days where you just could walk into a mainstream electronics store and hear quality sound reproduction.
