Has audiophilia changed your music taste?

yes. I look forward to listening to my stereo/music when I get home from work. It has enabled me to expand my musical horizons. I used to listen only to rock and classical. Now I listen to jazz,blues,gospel,bluegrass,latin. I still haven't been able to appreciate opera,country,rap,new age,smooth "jazz" however. Enjoy listening.

I started out musicwise listening to my folks classical stuff...then the first rock album I ever heard was Relayer by YES...so I got into the prog rock early,,,I hated and still despise pop music to this day...

But once I started getting into audio, most of rock (crappily recorded and mixed) turned me off...so I started listening to tons of Jazz-Fusion...thats where the sound quality and chops reside hand in hand...

Then thru sample CD by Chesky and others, I got into the McCoy Tyner stuff, etc...and not in an analytical way,,,it started that way though....Now, I am on the Richard Thompson bandwagon,,,its just incredible to listen to a 4 octave singer and awesome guitar player all in one in a great system,,,

also, thank goodness for all the reissues like King Crimson, Mike Oldfield etc on HDCD, as well as the Japanese mini-LP reissues,,,

Mine did but changed back after going SET and horn or full range speakers now all the old music sounds great again metal ,punk ,oldies , most Audiophile music is so souless .P/B is depressing .JK

Change? No.

appreciate and expand? yes.

Not a change... - may be development. First, I was have to taylor my collection. Some of quite pleasant CDs become almost unlistenable due to bad recoding, however I discovered for myself acoustic music from Naim, expanded my limited experience with classical - for me harsh sound of complicated symphonic music and even string quartets (bad recording on bad equipment) was always the barrier...
