Florian from Kraftwerk had a DQX1000 at one time, judging by some pics I saw.
Edgar Froese from Tangerine Dream was using B&W CDM7's I believe for playback in his studio a few years ago
Tear down these walls; Cut the ties that held me
Crying out at the top of my voice; Tell me now if you can hear me

In my pretty limited experience they usually have something but often it's quite modest.
I suppose it's like when I worked in telesales, that last thing I wanted to do when I got home was chat with someone on the 'phone.
There was one case I remember when a singer got the pre-production CD of the latest album and complained to the studio there was way too much bass and it was swamping the mix.
No-one else had this issue so someone went around his house and he was using a 1980s Amstrad midi system with the speakers sat on the floor, next to each other, in a corner alcove.

I know a few musicians and producers that have excellent equipment in their studios, but almost nothing in the lounge; although one did have an ancient heavyweight Akai music centre and another had a pair of 1210s into a pair of active Adam AX7s. After a day of making music, they want to get away from it and do something different.
Blimey, now there's an old thread revival. I was still being taken to school when this started!
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
