Does Heavy Metal music benefit from a high end audio system?


Not to dig at the genre although I’m not a fan, does Heavy Metal music benefit from an higher resolution systems? I’m not talking about comparing to a cheap box store system, rather, would one benefit moving from an audiophile quality $5-10k to a $100k+system?

Depends on the high-end and the Metal.  Some speakers purposely have a mid-bass punch that make Metal more visceral, and others roll off the top to keep that Metal from sounding like a high-speed dental drill.  If the high-end speaker goes for a more controlled bass and an extended treble, some Metal may not sound as good.
