Context: I told a friend to listen to Daft Punk‘s RAM because he had never heard the album before. After recommending to use a pair of headphones he‘s proceeded to tell me that he was actually listening on his tablet. The headphones in question are the AKG K371s. Marketing does what marketing does I suppose?!

He probably isn’t listening for it, you’d be surprised how many people don’t actually listen to their music, a lot people just play and don’t pay attention and try and discern any details not heard or noticed before.

I think it’s more often the other way round. That many audiophiles listen less to the music and more to the quality of the sound.
