I like my cars Bose system and listen to it for days on trips. I listen to my apple EarPods, HomePods for hours sometimes. My second system has a cheap dac, ps audio sprout 100 with revel floor standing speakers. I like this system over many I heard at last years Tampa Bay audio show that cost around $50k. I enjoy listening to any of these system for hours, but my system in my dedicated listening room far surpasses the sprout/revel system, but it should at 30x the cost.
When I go to audio shows, I’m more amazed how good the cheaper systems are compared to most of the high end systems. I thought most of the systems I heard in Tampa sounded terrible or mediocre for the money. But there are still systems in the high end that sound magical but the field is limited
