most people I know have bluetooth pill speakers. They usually ask: "you still have albums? weird... you mean you listen to them?"
So at that point telling them about why I upgraded my amp seems pointless.
I have a few friends who brag about their XYZ tower speakers (the bigger the better), stuck an inch from the wall, with a thick bush of Begonia on top, and the sound is an absolute torture to my ears and then I again I politely compliment them.
