The two are totally separable.
I only listen for the SQ (and a select number of albums) when I am in the process of updating something (maybe a month or two every 4/5 years - especially now with the lockdown).
I don't care for SQ if I listen to Bob Dylan, the Clash or Coltrane. The car system will do just fine. Music which in most cases is of much much much inferior SQ to stuff that is produced today.
