As a chill electronica listener, should I stop at a Med-Fi system?


Hi All,

As an electronica music listener of chill, downtempo, folk, and similar music, is there any point of me seeking an ultra high resolution system...DAC, cables, power conditioning..etc?

If its all about the source material, much of the music i listen to is not an orchestra or live band with lots of microphones, so I'm assuming there's not a ton of imaging and micro-detail going on.

Is there, then, any purpose to seeking equipment that can resolve all of those little details?  Should i just stop at a healthy Mid-Fi System?

  I listen to Classical Music about 99% of the time.  I think it is the most demanding genre to reproduce for many reasons, including dynamic range.  When I listen to non Classical on my system, I always feel like I am driving a Rolls Royce in a driveway.  I enjoy pop much more on my mid fi systems
