If you can create/play music yourself, why care about silly boxes attempting at creating an illusion?
All my musician friends could care less. Some appreciate the effort, but I get the feeling they're just being nice, and think audiophoolery is silly. A good musician usually has great ear for sound.
A minimum level of fidelity is nice, but a transistor radio tuned in properly will still get attention if the music is "right".
