Encouraging people to consider a traditional 2 channel stereo system.


IEMs, headphones, streaming by phone...if someone even listens at all.

How can we as enthusiasts in this hobby get people interested in a more traditional 2 channel stereo setup using speakers and associated gear? 

Even cheaper ChiFi sounds pretty good compared to what some of us had when we first started but it doesn't take a fortune to build nice sounding systems that work well and can be enjoyed for many years. 

What can we do to support this hobby, its gear manufacturers and promote physical media too although many may prefer streaming?  

Essentially, promoting a gateway into the hobby as well as a pathway for growth and upgrading over the long term?

What's wrong with headphones? I've got a great 2-channel system. I've also got a great headphone system. Having one does not automatically exclude the other. Headphones do not automatically equate to earbuds on an iPhone. 

@cleeds - So much for AI? AI can only work with the information it's given; if that's what Spotify says, and the question was about Spotify, then the answer was spot-on. It's not AI's job to come up with a conclusion like 'This is laughable - Spotify lossless has been 'forthcoming' for years'....
