I grew up on rock ( as well other types of music ) and continue to enjoy ( mostly older) acts. Except for a small number of reissues ( Dire Straits,Eagles,Pink Floyd etc.) or the very few originally reasonably well recorded discs, I would never spend the money I have unless the majority of my listening was to jazz and classical.
I've actually heard new recordings in the car, liked them, only to find them so poorly recorded that I can hardly listen to them on my stereo.
I know there are those who say their stereo makes everything sound better. I've never figured out how acurately reproducing highly compressed, distorted sound faithfully serves any purpose other than making it obvious that it was engineered to sound best on a low resolution medium.I'm not judging the music, simply the recording.
