Why do people that are Into rap and hip-hop even want a high-end audio system


Until recently I always thought that guys into high-end audio listened to Classical, Jazz, Blues and some classic rock. I never knew that some listened to rap or hip hop. It would seem to me that rap or hip-hop would sound better on a low to mid-fi system rather than a high-end system. What do you think?

Jond,

You claim African Americans mostly listen to this type of music. But Calvinj who has also started a couple of these rap threads says it's mostly suburban white kids that listen to this kind of music. 

Russbutton,

That is what I have been saying since the start of the conversation. I don't know why everyone gets in a fit over this. All this talk about racism has nothing to do with this. It's just a matter of common sense. Thanks for understanding what I am trying to say and I appreciate you're Input.

Rap music on Vandersteen 7's. I am sure Richard Vandersteen would really appreciate that.

Give Richard a call tomorrow and ask him how rap and hip hop would sound on his flagship 7 speakers? I would love to hear his answer.

I just saw it. When 2 Chainz put on his rap music the guy from M.B.L. Had a disgusted look on his face. 2 Chainz wanted to know if it was wireless and he liked the fact that the amp was so heavy no one could steal it.
