The “WOW!”: What’s a track, album, or artist you never appreciated until you heard it on quality gear?

The “YECH”: What‘s a track, album, or artist you thought sounded fine or even good until you heard it on a revealing, high-end system?

    Pretty much every overcompressed dynamically EDM track from 2000+. I just hear that digital distortion from bad limiting almost everywhere, on my ATH-M50x

    On cheap Bluetooth speakers it’s ok tho.

      EDM seems comes in two forms. Mixed for shitty car stereos, or club sound systems. You’re basically fighting an uphill struggle listening to it in other situations. Though if you have a good subs the stuff mixed for actual clubs can be good.
