In my youth the first investment of teenagers after owning a bicycle was a good hifi stereo system. It was common to work in holidays to afford one. This times are gone.
Today the kids listen even to bass heavy hip hop on their phones. All of them.
I often make playbacks for live singers, balletts, travesty show guys etc. When I send them playbacks 95% of them listen to it exclusively on laptop speakers, iPads or phones. They don't own something else. Same for "pro's" in advertising agencies and even film production companies. They never hear anything below 100Hz and then discuss about the mix. People performing music on stage and the best sound system they own is in their car.
For most 'music lovers' today the Windows 3.0 media player would be enough.
