Why do people that are Into rap and hip-hop even want a high-end audio system


Until recently I always thought that guys into high-end audio listened to Classical, Jazz, Blues and some classic rock. I never knew that some listened to rap or hip hop. It would seem to me that rap or hip-hop would sound better on a low to mid-fi system rather than a high-end system. What do you think?

How is tater's question veiled racism?   It's a valid question he's asking about whether accuracy is important to music that generally uses computer generated, often bloated sonics, low quality samples, high compression and is optimized for a club environment.   I know Rick Rubin has an audiophile system and cares about sound quality, and I'm sure Russell Simmons and jz have elaborate systems as well.   
Let's see its his second thread devoted to why rap is either not music or not worth listening too in just a few days plus he brought up the exact same subject in a totally unrelated thread. Now I didn't call it veiled racism, I said "its beginning to smack of veiled racism" and quite frankly given the relentless trashing of music that is largely produced by and listened to African Americans, it does make you wonder. Or at least it does me sorry if that offends anyone or if my reply was to strongly worded. I wish there could be more tolerance in the world of music and of people.
Jond,

You claim African Americans mostly listen to this type of music. But Calvinj who has also started a couple of these rap threads says it's mostly suburban white kids that listen to this kind of music.
