Some artists have good stereo's - the Pink Floyd guys, Tina Turner, the Dankworths, Siouxsie and Kate Bush to name a very few from "my" days. Dave Greenslade and the keyboard player from Visage (Dave "Formula") were both clients of the dealers I worked for.

I think that when you work with the original instruments, acoustic or electronic, hearing the compressed and mixed up results that we buy must be a bit of a let down. I doubt that many want to have a studio monitoring setup at home, as it's a bit like watching Corrie on a huge cinema screen
