Yeah it is, its all well and good having great gear, but when the music was recorded/mastered on the cheap it shows! And the better your system, the more it really shows.
Taking some of my favourite tracks to a mates house (before all of 2020 happened) who has an epic setup, utterly ruined them, now I always remember how just dull and flat they sounded, well, bit of an exaggeration but you know what I mean, don't meet your heroes....On the other hand, Tidal/other streaming platforms have been great, can quickly just jump into something I'd not normally choose, and get it in good quality (often remastered or updated in some way).

Cranked the volume up last night to listen to The The - Infected. System really comes alive when it's a bit louder, must make the most of no neighbours for the next wee while.
The production on The The stuff is so nice. I think my love of art rock, new wave, post punk etc has been enhanced by how good toms and percussion sound on the Tannoy & sealed sub combo.
