I built a system to primarily listen to classical, but be able to reproduce any genre. The correct tonal qualities are important, as well as soundstaging and imaging. The image for classical should be focused and reveal textures and depth of the orchestra.
If you have good components and the speakers are set up correctly, and the room is acoustically treated, your system should be able to reproduce other styles of music. I’m a Zeppelin fanatic and wasn’t quite getting the proper slam, so I changed tubes in my amp and moved some room treatments and even classical sounds better now.
I think it’s possible, I did it. The room is a major contributor to obtaining proper sonics. Of course, your components must be up to the task. IOW, good synergy.
Jazz, reggae, rock, blues all sound terrific in my "classical music" system.
