So, I just read a post about listening to Rap on a hi end system and it got me thinking about what other people listen to on their hi quality setups. I listen to a very broad range of music so I am curious to learn of some of your favorite artists/songs no matter what the genre. The purpose for me is to learn of new music, no matter what the genre. Please include a few brief details if it adds to the comment. I will start with some of the music I am listening to this week. Lastly, I am 46 and grew up in Denver, CO for any additional context to my tastes.
